I can t spy elements in Accessibility mode in blur prism however I can do it in HTML mode

Question

Hi GuyS,

When I try to spy elements in Accessibility mode the elements in the page are not highlighted where as only the URL and toolbar section on the website are identified.. it works fine when I spy elements in HTML mode .. do we have any Browser setting to enable this option

I am using IE11 and OS Win 8.1

Hey Jeenesh, this is one of the most common problems of Accessibility Mode. This happens because of the structure of the application screen you are interfacing makes it impossible for the spy tool to highlight the element. You can try using Application Navigator of Application Modeller which provides a treeview of all the Accessibility Elements available within the application so that they can be easily found and selected. 

To open Application Navigator, click the Open Application Navigator option with the button menu. Once the application model treeview has been generated, you can click on different elements within the Application Model Treeview the element will highlight in the application. Once the element you want is found and selected in the treeview you can press the OK button to use the element in Application Modeller.

Thanks for the reply Abha.. but it doesn't work.. When I launch Application Navigator option it takes all the item as HTML element.. And also this issue exists for all the application, not only the particular site.

I guess in that case, it's a problem of Accessibility Mode. As this is a very common problem with Accessibility Mode in Blue Prism.
