ControlClick not activating button

[Kajoe]

Dear Forum;

FIrst of all I would like to wish everybody all the best and hopely with a COVID free 2021.

I am trying to make a trial for testing with FIrefox. (I know that Firefox can be installed with silent switches, but this is a short program to try ControlCklic)

I have read a lot of problems and solutions for ControlClick and tried a lot of options allready. But I can't activate the buttons. Maybe someone can take a look at my file and tell me what I did wrong, or what I have to change? Thanks in advance. I have made printscreen of au3.info summary of first screen and I have attached the .au3 file too.

The one ] in your code is not supposed to be there.  Just look at the examples. 

This part looks wrong:

"[CLASS:Button; TEXT:&Volgende >]; INSTANCE:2]"

Mooi 2021

@Kajoe One suggestion for you.  Always use the handle of the windows and controls.  That way you can compare the ones you find with the AutoIt tool.  It is also faster and reduce the chance of making an error in the specials title format.

Hi Jos;

You are right. I made a mistake. The line should be like below. But with good code Button is still not activated. I tried only ClassNN: Button2 allso. But that was not working either.

Hi Nine. I am a rooky in programming, so I read a lot, but do not know a lot. I do not know what you mean with use the handle of the windows and controls.

"[CLASS:Button; TEXT:&Volgende >; INSTANCE:2]"

[Jos]

Just try:

ControlClick("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","","Button2")

Hi Jos;

Thanks again for quick reply. I tried your solution, but Button still not activates. Maybe I miss a #include  option? Could that be the reason? Now I have included following:

 

#RequireAdmin

#include <GuiStatusbar.au3>
#include <File.au3>
#include <Process.au3>
#NoTrayIcon
; Local include.
#include "_GUIResourcePic.au3"

Hi Jos. I found the problem. It was not the ControlClick line. The line I made was correct. But it was a mistake in the winwait  command lines. I forgot to put the "Mozilla Firefox-installatie"  Here is the correct working script. Thank you very much for super help. I learned a lot today.

Run('setup.exe')
WinWait("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Welkom bij de wizard")
If Not WinActive("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Welkom bij de wizard") Then WinActivate("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Welkom bij de wizard")
WinWaitActive("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Welkom bij de wizard")
ControlClick("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]")
WinWait("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Installatieonderdele")
If Not WinActive("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Installatieonderdele") Then WinActivate("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Installatieonderdele")
WinWaitActive("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Installatieonderdele")
ControlClick("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]")
WinWait("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Firefox is gereed vo")
If Not WinActive("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Firefox is gereed vo") Then WinActivate("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Firefox is gereed vo")
WinWaitActive("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","Firefox is gereed vo")
ControlClick("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]")
WinWait("Mozilla Firefox-installatie ","Voltooien van de wiz")
If Not WinActive("Mozilla Firefox-installatie ","Voltooien van de wiz") Then WinActivate("Mozilla Firefox-installatie ","Voltooien van de wiz")
WinWaitActive("Mozilla Firefox-installatie ","Voltooien van de wiz")
ControlClick("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:4]")
ControlClick("Mozilla Firefox-installatie","","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]")
