Hello RPA Community,

Sometimes, while implementing automation on browser, screen tends to move up as Recorder or Object cloning command crawl through the website. If anyone has faced the problem & has found a solution, please help?

Hi @Sunil 9849 ,

 

Are you facing this issue during attended or Unattended automation or both cases?

@jayantabiswas1 ,sorry to say, I haven’t figured out why it’s happening with object cloning/recorder command but as a work around started using JavaScript.

@Padmakumar

It happens both in attended & unattended run.

It happens both in attended & unattended run.

 

 

Under CR Settings, check the screen resolution selected to run for Bot runner machines. I would suggest using 1920 * 1080 and 100% scaling in base laptop while connecting to VM or Monitor in order to run bot properly otherwise in unattended automation, bot will fail to identify the object.

@Padmakumar, we do strictly follow the resolution 1920 * 1080 and 100% scaling in all of our machines. However, screen moves up as object cloning/recorder tries to identify web element using any of attributes. I think this issue has no dependency on screen resolution as we tried with different resolutions as well, none of them solves this issue.
