Hi @Ashwin A.K​ 

Its an application on the desktop.

I tried using Universal Recorder, but since i need to do a bit down in the dropdown menu, it selects wrong items.

 

even thought i capture scroll down, and choose correct items, it chooses wrong items, because it seems not going down in the menu

Hi @Semih Öztürk​ ,

 

Is this on the web?

If its in a desktop application then could you try using the Universal Recorder to record the dynamic object?

This will generate a series of Capture Action which you can refine and select operations from.

 

Kind Regards,

Ashwin A.K
