How to simplify a path

[batara666]

current code that are generated by pywinauto_recorder:

with Window(u"WhatsApp||Pane"):
    with Region(u"WhatsApp Desktop||Document->Search or start new chat Search or start new chat Archived Chat list Keep your phone connected WhatsApp connects to your phone to sync messages. To reduce data usage, connect your phone to Wi-Fi.||Group->||Group"):
        left_click(u"Voice call||Button")

It is possible to simplify the path below? (or even make it more stateless)

Search or start new chat Search or start new chat Archived Chat list Keep your phone connected WhatsApp connects to your phone to sync messages. To reduce data usage, connect your phone to Wi-Fi.

Edit:

Anyway, Thanks for the software, this really saves a lot of times

Hi @batara666,

Glad you found the solution.

You can try:

with Window(u"WhatsApp||Pane"):
    with Region(u"*"):
        left_click(u"Voice call||Button")

or simpler:

left_click(u"WhatsApp||Pane->*->Voice call||Button")

In version 0.6.0 of Pywinauto Recorder, the support of * is improved. Version 0.6.0 should be available very soon. There will also be a video tutorial to explain all the possibilities to identify an element with a path.

Do not hesitate to let me know your wishes of evolution.
