ClickNewRowCellXY Action (Grid Controls)

Applies to TestComplete 15.68, last modified on October 03, 2024
This method is not supported in web tests (including cross-platform web tests) that use XPath expressions and CSS selectors to locate web elements. This method can be only used in tests that locate web objects by using internal identification properties provided by TestComplete.

Description

The ClickNewRowCellXY action moves the mouse pointer to point (X, Y), which is relative to the top left corner of the specified cell in the new grid row, and then simulates a single click of the left mouse button.

Declaration

TestObj.ClickNewRowCellXY(Column, X, Y, Shift)

TestObj A variable, parameter or expression that specifies a reference to one of the objects listed in the Applies To section
Column [in]    Required    Variant    
X [in]    Required    Integer    
Y [in]    Required    Integer    
Shift [in]    Optional    TShiftKey Default value: skNoShift   
Result None

Applies To

The method is applied to the following objects:

View Mode

To view this method in the Object Browser panel and in other panels and dialogs, activate the Advanced view mode.

Parameters

The method has the following parameters:

Column

Specifies the grid column that contains the cell to be clicked. This parameter takes the column’s index or caption.

The index is zero-based and corresponds to the column’s position within the object's internal columns collection rather than the column’s visible position in the object.

The caption can contain asterisk (*) or question mark (?) wildcards or regular expressions. The asterisk corresponds to a string of any length, the question mark corresponds to any single character. To specify more complicated parts of a caption, use regular expressions.

The caption can be case-sensitive or case-insensitive depending on the value of the Use case-sensitive parameters project setting.

XtraVerticalGrid: The XtraVerticalGrid control may contain multi-editor columns. These columns contain several headers (or nested columns) within each column. TestComplete considers these nested columns as ordinary columns, and both types of columns share the same index space.

The following image illustrates a typical structure of the XtraVerticalGrid control:

X

Specifies the horizontal coordinate of the mouse pointer where a click will be simulated. The coordinate is relative to the top left corner of the cell.

Y

Specifies the vertical coordinate of the mouse pointer where a click will be simulated. The coordinate is relative to the top left corner of the cell.

Shift

Specifies whether the Shift, Alt or Ctrl key is pressed when a click is made (see TShiftKey). By default, this parameter is skNoShift (no Shift key is pressed).

Result Value

None.

Remarks

  • If the given grid does not contain a new row, ClickNewRowCellXY fails and posts an error message to the log.

  • Desktop testing: If TestObj refers to an object of a non-DPI-aware application running with a DPI setting other than 100%, set the X and Y parameter values relative to the application (as if the application is running with the 100% DPI setting).

  • Web testing: If the Use CSS pixels for scaled pages option is enabled (by default), set the X and Y parameter values relative to the web page, regardless of the browser zoom and the system's DPI setting.
