Hello Murray, In VMware Automation, we use waittillguiexist('window name', guiTimeOut = <time to wait>) Here component name / object name is optional. Thanks Nagappan <div class="gmail_quote"> On Mon, Jul 27, 2009 at 9:52 AM, Murray Cumming <<a href="mailto:murrayc@murrayc.com">murrayc@murrayc.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> I am trying to fix a problem in an LTDP script. In one case, it takes more than the default 30 seconds for a dialog to appear: <a href="http://git.gnome.org/cgit/glom/tree/ldtp/database-creation/create-db.py#n80" target="_blank">http://git.gnome.org/cgit/glom/tree/ldtp/database-creation/create-db.py#n80</a> I'd like to increase the timeout for just that one call. The documentation suggests how to do that, but I don't know what it means by "component" there. <a href="http://ldtp.freedesktop.org/user-doc/waittillguiexist.html" target="_blank">http://ldtp.freedesktop.org/user-doc/waittillguiexist.html</a> If anyone has an example it would be nice to add it to that documentation too. -- <a href="mailto:murrayc@murrayc.com">murrayc@murrayc.com</a> <a href="http://www.murrayc.com" target="_blank">www.murrayc.com</a> <a href="http://www.openismus.com" target="_blank">www.openismus.com</a> _______________________________________________ LDTP-dev mailing list <a href="mailto:LDTP-dev@lists.freedesktop.org">LDTP-dev@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/ldtp-dev" target="_blank">http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/ldtp-dev</a> </blockquote></div> -- Linux Desktop (GUI Application) Testing Project - <a href="http://ldtp.freedesktop.org">http://ldtp.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="http://nagappanal.blogspot.com">http://nagappanal.blogspot.com</a>
