Scroll

This step helps you scroll in the program windows. This is an application-level step and it is available by right-clicking the application tab. Note that you must select the appropriate element on the window before inserting this step.

Additionally, it is possible to simulate hardware keyboard and mouse on an automated computer. For more information, see "Install the Desktop Automation Service" in the Kofax RPA Installation Guide.

Properties

Name
Specify the name of the step.
Amount
Specify the amount to scroll. The value in this field equals the number of notches of the mouse scroll wheel. Initially one notch equals 3 lines of text in text editors. You can change this parameter in the Mouse Properties window on the Automation Device. You can use both positive and negative numbers. For example, if you select Down and use a negative number, the element scrolls up.

When you use this step with the built-in browser, Amount option means a number of pixels to scroll.

Note Make sure you correctly select an element to scroll. If an element cannot be selected, try clicking the element first and then use Scroll.
