UIAutomation, Firefox & "Highlighting"

[GManNAtl]

I have dug in deep and figured out quite a bit about UIA and have my first script working, but have one issue.

How do I turn off the "red highlighting" that occurs as the elements are selected?

Also, does a function reference exist for this UDF? Reading through the examples I've learned a lot, but I am sure there are some things I could learn with more complete documentation.

I apologize if either of these have been answered, but I assure you I've googled both to death and didn't come up with anything.

Its in the first 4 posts of the examples in IUIAutomation thread where you found the UDF library. And if you have dug in deep

you can see in UIA.CFG a highlight=true

UIA.CFG example

expandcollapse popup

An action reference is there when you study Func _UIA_action($obj_or_string, $strAction, $p1 = 0, $p2 = 0, $p3 = 0, $p4 = 0)
each line that starts with case in that function will tell you the actions possible

Case "leftclick", "left", "click", _
        Case "setValue", "settextValue"
        Case "setValue using keys"
        Case "setValue using clipboard"
        Case "getValue"
        Case "sendkeys", "enterstring", "type", "typetext"
        Case "invoke"
        Case "focus", "setfocus", "activate", "switchto"
