It sounds like you want KS to find your object in the Object Repository when you select it in your code. If this is correct, then I don’t think so. However, if you hold down the CTRL key and click on your object in your code, the object (the object properties, the object selector, etc.) will display in your working area. You can change anything on this page and it will take affect after you save.

Obviously, the pathway to your object within your OR is there in front of you.

findTestObject('Object Repository/AAA WebClients/ChequeNeedsInfoDepositReview/Grid/span_ChequeDate'))

Note: You cannot rename the object, nor cut and paste it to other locations, on this page. Follow the pathway of your object within the OR to do that. Always cut and paste, or rename, your objects in the OR so that your project’s code (everywhere) changes too.

Note2: If you use CTRL + mouse click to get your object and nothing happens, then your object does not exist in your OR. This can happen if you rename (or change) your object in your code instead of the OR.
