Hi Sam,

It is a feature which allows you to specify the Child Index of the process to which to attach. Each session (different tab or window of your web application) is given a unique index based on the order in which the process for that session was created. For example the main parent process is given the index of 0, whereas the first tab of the process is given the Child Index of 1.

So it means that if you have multiple windows opened up with same process name or window title then child index values can be used to differentiate them. You however, need to do a hit and trial to get the exact child index value. It usually always starts from 0 and by default if you are using this to indicate the first window always try giving values as 0 or 1.
