You can change the search method set for multiple controls at the same time. This lets you quickly switch to a more accurate search method without manually updating the properties of each control. For example, if multiple HTMLLink controls in the application repository use a relative XPath, but have a dynamic ID attribute that changes every time the web page refreshes, you can update them all to use the full XPath.
See About search methods for information about search methods.
1. Ctrl+click the controls to change the search method for in the Application Repository pane. You can only select multiple controls in the same window.
2. Right-click and choose Search Method.
A check mark indicates the current search method. Custom indicates at least one of the selected controls uses the Custom XPath or Function search method.
3. Select the search method to use.
Relative XPath and Full XPath are only available for HTML controls in web applications. Custom opens the Properties dialog box and is only available when one control is selected.
You are prompted to confirm the change.
4. Click Yes.
The selected search method is set in the control properties.
