Get Text of all textboxs that were made during automation

Solved608 views1st July 2024

Hi Dojo Community,

I was wondering if it is possible to grab the text from text boxes widgets that are created during automation ?

I have tried a for loop for the widgets as so:
foreach(Widget a in AWS.Widgets)
{
if (skip != 0)
{
if (a.Type == UIBlockType.TextBox)
{
engine.Log(a.Text);
}

skip++;
}
}

Thanks in advance

Hi Amer,

That should indeed be possible. I've tried the same as you and it works as expected. Could you verify:

  • if you are using the latest version of the Skyline.DataMiner.Utils.InteractiveAutomationScriptToolkitExample NuGet?
  • The variable 'a' within your code is of Type Widget still, could you try casting it specifically to a Textbox to make sure we access the Text property?

Example below:

  1. The 'Add TextBox' button will dynamically add a textbox to your dialog.
  2. The 'Print Status' button will retrieve and show all current text values within the textboxes within your dialog.

internal sealed class Testdialog : Dialog
{
    public Testdialog(IEngine engine) : base(engine)
    {
        BtnAdd.Pressed += (sender, args) => AddWidget(new TextBox(String.Empty), ++Row, 0);
        BtnPrintStatus.Pressed += (sender, args) =>
        {
            StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
            foreach (TextBox widget in this.Widgets.OfType<TextBox>())
            {
                sb.AppendLine("Text: " + widget.Text);
            }

            Status.Text = sb.ToString();
        };

        AddWidget(BtnAdd, Row, 0);
        AddWidget(BtnPrintStatus, Row, 1);
        AddWidget(Status, ++Row, 0);
    }

    public int Row { get; set; }

    public Button BtnAdd { get; } = new Button("Add TextBox");

    public Button BtnPrintStatus { get; } = new Button("Print Status");

    public Label Status { get; } = new Label();
}
