Setting Unexpected Active Window Options

An unexpected active window is any unplanned window that appears during script
playback and prevents the expected window from being made active (for example,
an error message from the network or application-under-test). These windows can
interrupt playback and cause false failures.

To set options to specify how Robot responds to unexpected active windows:
1. Open the GUI Playback Options dialog box. (See Setting GUI Playback Options

on page 9-4.)

2. Click the Unexpected Active Window tab.
