Hey guys, I made a custom drag and drop function from here Handling drag and drop testing for web applications with Katalon Studio | Katalon Docs
now I want to use that function inside another custom keyword. Keeps giving me this error. 
I have similar situation, need to call custom keyword inside of custon keyword. Is it possible? And if it is, how?
at the moment, I still am trying to figure this out, just using the custom keywords separately not together. I am sure there is a way, haven’t figured it out yet 
This is not supported yet. Actually a custom keyword is presented as a function, so you just call it directly using method call, e.g:
@Keyword
def isElementPresent(TestObject to, int timeout){
//Use Katalon built-in function to find elements with time out 1 seconds
List elements = WebUiBuiltInKeywords.findWebElements(to, timeout)
//Call getHtmlTableColumns custom keyword
getHtmlTableColumns(null, “”)
return elements.size() > 0
}
Yes, it can.
thanks … I found another post that shows how… basically you put the calling keyword that is in a different package in parenthesis “()” and use the “new” java keyword
(new “packagename”.“classname”()).“methodname”()
example:
(new com.acme.common.myclass()).mymethod()

Thanks a lot! I was wishing to have this!
Thank you!
Thank you it’s working fine but how to pass values for eg
I have
@Keyword
def fill details (String Value)
To another custom keyword
