Note If you use an editor other than that provided with SilkTest to
write your test scripts, use Copy to Clipboard to insert identifiers
rather than Paste to Editor.
Copy to Clipboard
The Copy to Clipboard pushbutton copies the identifier in the Window
Identifier list box to the clipboard. The window is cleared. Use Edit/Paste to
insert the identifiers into an editing window of your choice.
Close
The Close pushbutton closes the Record Window Identifiers dialog.
Record/Window Locations...
Opens the Record Window Locations dialog, shown below, which you use to
record the x, y location of a graphical control, such as a tool bar. A location is
recorded relative to the screen, frame, and client window.
Location
When you move the mouse cursor over the active application, the text field
displays the 4Test identifier of the GUI object tracked by the mouse. The
Screen, Frame, and Client radio buttons display the x, y location of the GUI
object relative to the screen, frame, and client window, respectively. Select
the location of your choice. Then press Ctrl+Alt (Ctrl+Shift if you changed
the hotkey in Recorder Options) to halt recording.
Paste to Editor
The Paste to Editor pushbutton inserts the relative location of your choice
into the active SilkTest editing window. The location is inserted at the cursor
position. The Record Window Locations dialog is cleared.
Note If you use an editor other than that provided with SilkTest to
write your test scripts, use Copy to Clipboard to insert locations
rather than Paste to Editor.
Copy to Clipboard
The Copy to Clipboard pushbutton copies the location of the object named in
the text field to the clipboard. The window is cleared. Use Edit/Paste to insert
the location into an editing window of your choice.
Keep on Top
If checked, the Keep on Top check box keeps the Record Window Locations
dialog in the foreground even when you are tracking the cursor over your
application.
