ActionMode WaitOn

ActionMode WaitOn allows you to halt your Bot until certain requirements have been fulfilled.

You can define one of the following requirements:

• A control has a specific value. For instance, the Bot should wait until the value of a progress bar is 100%.

• A control has adopted a specific property. For instance, wait until a button is active, i.e. the property enabled is true.

By default, the Bot waits 20000 milliseconds.

If the wait time has passed and the control doesn't fulfill the defined requirement, the Step fails.

You can define a different wait time in milliseconds in the setting Synchronization Timeout during WaitOn.

This setting is located at Project > Settings > TBox > Synchronization. The default value is 20000 milliseconds.

Alternatively, you can create the special task configuration parameter SynchronizationTimeoutDuringWaitOn. Unlike the global setting, this parameter only applies to the object for which you set it. For instance a particular Bot or folder.
