WaitWindowOpen not finding Firefox window

[montanan]

I have tried a number of variations on the following...

Code: Select all

Let>WW_TIMEOUT=30
Run>C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe
WaitWindowOpen>Mozilla Firefox*
IfWindowOpen>Mozilla Firefox*,AffirmMsg,NegMsg
Label>AffirmMsg
    Msg>I can see Firefox
Label>NegMsg
    Msg>I can't see Firefox

... but nothing seems to work to force Macro Scheduler to wait long enough for the window to actually open before the script moves on to the IfWindowOpen step

I've tried...

WaitWindowOpen>firefox*
WaitWindowOpen>Firefox*

... but no luck so far.

Have you read this thread?

I haven't tried it but I wonder what effect the WaitReady>1 function would have?

Thank you, JRL.

The post you referenced was very informative. Browsers just act differently from other Windows apps, it seems.

I also tried...

WaitReady>0
... and ...
WaitReady>1

... but no luck.

I can certainly use image recognition, so that's what I'll do!
