Re: chromefindelements returning array of hexadecimal instead of links

Thank you Dorian, I've checked (and re-downloaded) chromedriver, and it's current for the stable version of Chrome. The click thing is weird, definitely. On some pages, "click" works without issue. On subsequent pages, it fails to click the element in array_1, even though the desired element is sitt...

Re: chromefindelements returning array of hexadecimal instead of links

In the above code, this is the link I'm telling it to click: <a href="/pieces/495920-770-hycean-worlds">770- Hycean Worlds</a> It's a part of the div with the "title" class: <div class="title"> <a href="/pieces/495920-770-hycean-worlds">770- Hycean Worlds</a> <div class="subtitle">Are Sub-Neptune Pl...

Re: chromefindelements returning array of hexadecimal instead of links

That helps, thanks.

The problem then seems to be that the ChromeElementAction>hIE,arrElementID_1,click is not performing a click action on the returned element.

chromefindelements returning array of hexadecimal instead of links

Having trouble with chromefindelements. I'm running: ChromeFindElements>hIE,xpath,//div[@class='title']/a,arrElementID ChromeElementAction>hIE,arrElementID_1,click on the following. It's a long list, so only a snippet: <...> <div class="piece column span-16 even"> <div class="column span-11"> <div c...

Re: "Assistance from Microsoft Edge" popup breaking script

Grovkillen>> Yes, I tried that, hoping it would work. However, settings get saved in the "user directory". But, when Edge starts up with the edgedriver in automated test mode, it creates a *temporary* user directory for that session, and all changes to preferences or settings disappear when Edge clo...

"Assistance from Microsoft Edge" popup breaking script

Hi folks, With the latest update from Microsoft Edge, I'm getting this popup: https://knvc.org/images/knvc/clipboard01.jpg It intercepts keypresses, which derails the running script. While still in test mode, I tried "edge://flags/#edge-show-feature-recommendations" and disabling the "Assistance fro...

Flag for manual vs scheduled run

I'd like to see a runtime variable that indicates whether or not the script was run manually vs. unattended/scheduled run.
for example:

If>IS_MANUAL=1
...bypass safety and timing checks...
else
...run safety and timing checks...
endif

Re: Bug: All Scheduled Run times reset on system restart

That highlighted script is supposed to run on Monday at 14:10, repeat every 30 mins, stop and reset at 17:00. There's an internal check to make sure that it's running in that 14:00 to 17:00 time slot, or else it exits. The rest of the repeating scripts are similar in construction and scheduling. EDI...

Bug: All Scheduled Run times reset on system restart

I have 15.0.17 installed at a radio station as part of mission-critical automated program download. I have about 75 scripts that have to start at very specific times, and repeat every half hour for three hours each. The window of availability to retrieve files is specific. Issue: Whenever I restart ...

Re: Error: "Cannot Run Dialog. Not Found"

OK...it runs now. But here's what happened: I had to kill the process from Task Manager, as it got stuck after the dialog error. When I restarted Macro Scheduler, all 50+ of my scripts had disappeared, and all the track groups read 'ERROR'. It wouldn't import the existing scripts from the script dir...

Error: "Cannot Run Dialog. Not Found"

I just updated from 14.5.4 to 14.5.5. This code snippet used to run fine in 14.5.4, now when I run the script in 14.5.5, it throws up an error stating "Cannot Run Dialog DIALOG1. Not Found". The dialog is below. Did something change with this version? let>strLastFolder=Z:\ Dialog>Dialog1 object Dial...

Re: XMLParse not returning any data

Thanks, Marcus.
I did eventually figure it out on my own after another half-hour, and I did use RegEx out the namespace declarations and downstream NS references. The parsing works fine now.

XMLParse not returning any data

Hey there... I'm banging my head against the desk trying to get XMLParse to work. I've tried multiple formats based on the examples as well as the tutorials at the w3schools. I just can't get this to work. Any insights? LabelToVar>XML,strXML //Get the number of recordings XMLParse>strXML,/metadata/r...
