RPA.Windows - Ability to check toggle state of Checkbox #1166

Open savitakul opened 3 months ago

savitakul commented 3 months ago

We are using RPA.Windows for desktop automation, we are trying to find ways to get the toggle state of checkbox and act on UI accordingly. We do not find any RPA.Windows keyword that provides this information. Can you please let us know if we can have such keyword for checkbox control?

Yes, that can be done. I will add related functionality to the library.

Hi,

you can always define such keyword in custom library like this:

  1. custom_lib.py

    @keyword
    def get_checkbox_state_py(checkbox_control: CheckBoxControl) -> bool:
    toggle = checkbox_control.GetTogglePattern()
    return toggle.ToggleState
  2. custom_resource.resource

Get Checkbox State
    [Arguments]    ${checkbox_locator}

    ${checkbox_control} =    Get Element    ${checkbox_locator}
    ${state} =    Get Checkbox State Py    ${checkbox_control.item}
    RETURN    ${state}
