The Module TC UIA Popup Menu contains the following attribute:

ModuleAttribute	Description
Menu Item	The item to be selected from the context menu. If this is located in a submenu of the context menu, the path of the submenu must be specified. Items must be separated with ->.

Parameter WaitForDisplay

The parameter WaitForDisplay can be used for the ModuleAttribute Menu Item. The UIA Engine expands menus upon steering and clicks on the last element in the path. Sometimes, the UIA Engine clicks on the element before the menu is expanded and displayed. The WaitForDisplay parameter can be adjusted to prevent this. The value is specified as a span of time (in milliseconds) that defines how long the engine should wait for the menu to expand before performing a click. If no WaitForDisplay parameter has been specified, 300 is used as the default value.

Input

If a path is entered, the specified menu item is selected. The path is specified according to the following syntax:

MenuItem1->MenuItem2->MenuItem3-> etc.

The following operations can be performed:
