Tosca Wizard menu

The Tosca Wizard menu bar is dynamically structured and its contents are available to users depending on the context they are working in.

In chapter "Scan classic Modules with Legacy Scan" we show you how to create Modules with Tosca Wizard.

After one page of the test object has been scanned with Tosca Wizard, a connection is established between this page and Tosca Wizard. This connection is terminated if the user navigates to another page. All the information that is already contained in Tosca Wizard can be freely edited and saved.

Wizard menu Edit

Copying controls in XML format

Tosca Wizard allows the XML code of individual controls to be read out via the option Copy.

A property must therefore be selected in the Control Properties tab. The name and the value range of this property are copied to the Windows clipboard. Alternatively you can also perform a double-click (see also chapter "Copying values to the clipboard")

Example: innerHTML property

.innerHTML=<tbody>
<tr><td style="white-space: nowrap;" dir="ltr" id="gs_ttc0"></td>
<td id="gs_tti0" class="gsib_a"><div style="position: relative;" id="gs_lc0"><input style='background: url("data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAID/AMDAwAAAACH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAO

Searching for objects

A search dialog opens if the option Search is selected.

You can search for logical names, technical descriptions, or both.

The following options can be enabled by selecting the corresponding checkbox:

• Case Sensitive

  The search is case-sensitive.

• Exact Match

  The exact match is searched.

• Use Regular Expression

  Regular expressions are used in the search query.

  Example: [0-9]$

  The first item that ends with a cipher is searched.

• Use as Filter

  The specified search criteria are used as a filter in Tosca Wizard. Only items that match these criteria are displayed.

Current filter: <none>	The number of object types to be displayed in the tree can be restricted by using filters (see chapter "Filtering control types").

Filtering control types

Each detected object can be assigned to a specific control type.

The option Current Filter: <none> enables you to restrict the number of scan results to one or more control types.

In the subsequent dialog you can select the required control types by enabling the corresponding checkboxes.

After you have confirmed your selection with a click on the OK button, Tosca Wizard displays the items of the selected type in the tree:

The filter that is currently active is shown on the lower right side. If the selected control types are deselected, the filter is reset.

Showing information on the test object

A section which defines one of the following three properties, must be added to the WizardMappings.dat file to be able to scan an application with Tosca Wizard:

Class=...

<name of the executable file>

Caption=...

Tosca Wizard records this information upon scanning (see chapter "Settings in the WizardMappings.dat file").

If the option Show application info is enabled, the information is shown in Tosca Wizard.

Defining the transparency factor

Transparency is specified via the option Transparent->Transparency Factor.... The transparency degree is indicated in percent. The higher the value, the less transparent the window will be displayed. The default value is 70%.

Options menu

Wizard menu Options

Option	Description	Key combination
Mark selected control	If an object is selected in the tree view, the referenced object is highlighted in red in the test object (see Illustration "Marking controls").
Scanning->Scan all items	All visible, steerable and even invisible objects are scanned when the test object is being scanned.
Scanning->Enable hotkey (F12)	The test object can be scanned by using hotkeys (see chapter "Scanning applications with hotkey"). The F12 key is set by default.	Ctrl + H
Scanning->Minimize statusbar	This option minimizes the Scan Progress window.
Use UIAEngine	The Tosca UIA Engine is used for scanning the application.

Highlighting objects in the application

The option Mark selected control assists you with business-based classification of controls. If an object is selected in the tree in Tosca Wizard, the referenced control is highlighted in red in the application.

Whether objects are highlighted in the application or not depends mainly on the used technology and the control type to be highlighted.
