I am experimenting with UIAWrappers.au3 from junkew to complete an application which presents absolutely no control information using AutoIT Window Info. While I am able to complete the form successfully, I am not happy with the speed. As a benchmark, the simple Send method occurs in far less than 1-second, but the UIAutomation approach takes 3-seconds. I am wondering whether performance gains may be achieved by specifying the controls more precisely; but I am unsure how to do that. I was able to speed things up a bit by setting $UIA_DefaultWaitTime=0. The controls of interest are 5-levels deep, as show in the simplespy output below. It seems I do get faster response by specifying the target/top-level window, as show in the code below. Any ideas? #include "UIAWrappers.au3" _UIA_setVar("Global.Debug", False) _UIA_setVar("Global.Debug.File", False) _UIA_setVar("Global.Highlight", False) _UIA_setVar("DPN","Title:=NC-stat DPNCheck Communicator;controltype:=UIA_WindowControlTypeId;class:=Window") _UIA_action('DPN','setFocus') _UIA_setVar("DPN.firstName","AutomationId:=txtFirstName") _UIA_setVar("DPN.lastName", "AutomationId:=txtLastName") _UIA_Action('DPN.lastName','setvalue','last name') _UIA_setVar("DPN.ID", "AutomationId:=txtSubjectId") _UIA_setVar("DPN.DOB", "AutomationId:=PART_TextBox") _UIA_setVar("DPN.Ft", "AutomationId:=txtSubjectHeight") _UIA_setVar("DPN.In", "AutomationId:=txtSubjectHeight2") _UIA_Action('DPN.firstName','setvalue','first name') _UIA_Action('DPN.ID','setvalue','ID012345') _UIA_Action('DPN.DOB','setvalue','1/31/1932') _UIA_Action('DPN.Ft','setvalue','6') _UIA_Action('DPN.In','setvalue','1') SimpleSpy output: ;~ *** Standard code *** #include "UIAWrappers.au3" AutoItSetOption("MustDeclareVars", 1) Local $oP4=_UIA_getObjectByFindAll($UIA_oDesktop, "Title:=NC-stat DPNCheck Communicator;controltype:=UIA_WindowControlTypeId;class:=Window", $treescope_children) _UIA_Action($oP4,"setfocus") Local $oP3=_UIA_getObjectByFindAll($oP4, "Title:=;controltype:=UIA_PaneControlTypeId;class:=Frame", $treescope_children) Local $oP2=_UIA_getObjectByFindAll($oP3, "Title:=;controltype:=UIA_TabControlTypeId;class:=TabControl", $treescope_children) Local $oP1=_UIA_getObjectByFindAll($oP2, "Title:=Patient;controltype:=UIA_TabItemControlTypeId;class:=TabItem", $treescope_children) Local $oP0=_UIA_getObjectByFindAll($oP1, "Title:=;controltype:=UIA_PaneControlTypeId;class:=Frame", $treescope_children) ;~ First find the object in the parent before you can do something ;~$oUIElement=_UIA_getObjectByFindAll(".mainwindow", "title:=;ControlType:=UIA_EditControlTypeId", $treescope_subtree) Local $oUIElement=_UIA_getObjectByFindAll($oP0, "title:=;ControlType:=UIA_EditControlTypeId", $treescope_subtree) _UIA_action($oUIElement,"click")

So, I have this odd issue happening with UIAWrappers. When I run simplespy.au3 through SciTE, it finds the object I'm trying to work with, no problem. But, when I compile simplespy.exe, it can't find it. Another script that utilizes UIAWrappers is experiencing the same phenomenon. EDIT: Compiling as 32-bit or 64-bit does not affect this behavior. The trouble starts at the very first object I try to get via _UIA_getObjectByFindAll, so I included the $properties2Match array and the object properties that were returned by _UIA_getPropertyValue for that first object both when running from SciTE and when compiled. It always finds the matches for the title and control type properties. But when compiled, it fails to find the Automation ID property. Any ideas as to why this would be happening? Hoping junkew will see this and have an idea. These are the $properties2Match 30005|Screen/PVN - ###.###.##.## - CDK Drive|0|False 30003|50032|0|False 30011|Portal|0|False Object properties when running from SciTE: <propertymatching> j:1 propID:[30005] expValue:[Screen/PVN - ###.###.##.## - CDK Drive]actualValue:[Screen/PVN - ###.###.##.## - CDK Drive]1 j:2 propID:[30003] expValue:[50032]actualValue:[50032]1 j:3 propID:[30011] expValue:[Portal]actualValue:[Portal]1 </propertymatching> Object properties when script is compiled: <propertymatching> j:1 propID:[30005] expValue:[Screen/PVN - ###.###.##.## - CDK Drive]actualValue:[Screen/PVN - ###.###.##.## - CDK Drive]1 j:2 propID:[30003] expValue:[50032]actualValue:[50032]1 j:3 propID:[30011] expValue:[Portal]actualValue:[]0 </propertymatching>
