Hi guys, Does anybody knows how to select list item Ticket from this menu? ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/katalon/original/2X/a/a6b902efd80af644315c6e08c5d104c2d501b331.png) I was recording and spying x times to see how program recognizes this objects, and he recognizes: 1.) div\_Please select 2.) li\_Ticket I’ve checked xpath position of both this objects and they should be correct but when I try to execute test case, on video can be seen that I’ve clicked on Please select and then Tickets and Packages choices appeared but Tickets cannot be selected and I don’t know what item options to choose beside Click. Anybody have clue how to figure this? Thanks in advance. ---

You have the Category as Windows Desktop App Testing but your elements are having names like **div\_Please select** and **li\_Ticket**. These seems to be web elements rather than desktop. Also, is the Tickets menu option grayed out? That would generally mean that it is not available as an option to be selected at this time. ---

Hi, sorry for not presenting all needed data.

I noticed that the `
  • ` element with text “Tickets” has `area-selected` attribute of `false`. `
  • Tickets
    • ` I am not sure, but I guess `area-selected` needs to be toggled to `true` before clicking the element. So it would be worth trying to move the cursor over the `
  • ` element before clicking it. So … ```auto WebUI.mouseOver(findTestObject("li_tickets")) WebUI.click(findTestObject("li_tickets")) ``` ---

    Unfortunately, result is still the same, this li\_tickets can’t be recognized and selected ☹ ---

    How about ensuring the element present before clicking it? ```auto WebUI.verifyElementPresent(findTestObject("li_tickets"), 10) WebUI.click(findTestObject("li_tickets")) ``` In the console Log, what error do you find? ---

    You possibly want to try the Enhanced Click: [https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/docs/webui-enhanced-click.html](https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/docs/webui-enhanced-click.html) history of the keyword: > [@WebUI.Click -\> WebUI.enhancedClick](http://forum.katalon.com/t/webui-click-webui-enhancedclick/47257): > > Just a suggestion… When WebUI.click() has failed to successfully click a test object, by way of a new project execution setting,   Retry Failed Click with Enhanced Click, \ it should try WebUI.enhancedClick() automatically.
