Autoit - lost focus after child window pops up

[Kogan]

I am trying to click on an item from combobox control from parent window. once I click, a new child window pops up, then I need to click on OK button in the child window.

Problem here is, when the child window pops up, the autoit script loses its focus. I have used WinGetTitle, WinWaitActive, WinActivate to get control of child window, but none are working.

Any help in this is highly appreciated. Thanks!

Without your code we are not able to see what is going wrong.

Hi Funkey,
I am trying to automate PDF advanced search using autoit, below is the code am using which gets stuck after control command.

The script never exits.

#include <Constants.au3>
 #include <GuiMenu.au3>
 #include <WinAPI.au3>
#include <Array.au3>
#include <GuiComboBox.au3>

PdfOpen()
Func PdfOpen ()

Run("C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 2015\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe")
Sleep(500)

Send("^+{F}")
WinWaitActive('Search',"", 10)
Sleep(1000)

 $hWnd = ControlGetHandle(WinGetHandle("Search"),"","[CLASS:ComboBox; INSTANCE:11]")
if ($hWnd) Then
 $RtArray = _GUICtrlComboBox_GetListArray($hWnd)
 EndIf

Local $computer="Bro"
$sColumn=0
$iPosition=_ArraySearch($RtArray,$computer, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, $sColumn)

                ControlCommand("Search", "", "[CLASS:ComboBox; INSTANCE:11]", "SetCurrentSelection", $iPosition-1)
            ConsoleWrite("Success")

Sleep(200)
EndFunc
