Global Send Keys - Page Down not working

RoshiniSyed
Level 4
Hello,

I am working in an application, where there is a scroll down present in the page. I need to send pagedown Keystrokes to navigate the page down to capture the rest of the elements,

Tried by sending both  "{DOWN}" and "{PGDN}" - GSK ,but doesn't worked as expected.

Any Suggestions on this?

Hi Roshini,

Change the action from Global Send Keys to Global Send Key Events once and then try to pass the value as: "{Down}" or you can try passing the value as "{PageDown}" like I suggested earlier and check how it works once

Many Thanks Devneet, working as expected. "{PageDown}"  - Global Send Key Events is throwing error.
"{DOWN}"  Global Send Key works fine now, relaunched BluePrism ,that does the job.

Glad to know the down syntax it worked for you with Global Send Key Events. Just something to know, many times GSK may not work as intended I have faced this issue in past. That's when Send Key Events does the trick as it is literally the same hardware functionality as what a human would do while typing some text from keyboard.

On the other hand, I might have to check the PageDown functionality once because the official documentation tells that it is the key name. However, maybe an application issue as well which is restricting that. I will keep a note of it to have it checked for near future though as I never used it before.
