Hi all, I need to choose some objects on map by pressing Shift and drag it to other objects.
Is it possible on Katalon?

Thanks

I haven’t tried but perhaps you can try to use Robot and “drag and drop” keyword together.

So, start Robot and send a keypress of “SHIFT”, do your drag and drop, then use Robot again to do a keyrelease of “SHIFT”.

import java.awt.Robot
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent

Robot robot = new Robot();
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_SHIFT);
//Drag n Drop me to target `<div>` and drop it to the other `<div>`
WebUI.dragAndDropToObject(findTestObject('Drag and Drop/div_draggable'), findTestObject('Drag and Drop/div_droppable'))
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_SHIFT);

Hi @daria,

Just checking in to see if Grylion54’s comment was able to answer your question or not.

If yes, then please go ahead and mark his comment as a solution :white_check_mark: so that others who may be asking similar questions can find the solution as well!

Thanks,
Albert
