Click to select elements in Spy Windows Objects - Screen View

Hi everyone :waving_hand:

A community member shared this feature request, would like to hear your voice. They’re using Katalon Studio 9.7.7 for Windows automation and noticed a usability gap in the Spy Windows Objects tool.

Current behavior

You cannot click on an element in the Screen View to see its properties. You have to find it in the All Objects list, scroll through the hierarchy, and locate the properties manually — which gets slow when there are many UI elements.

Requested behavior

Click on any element in the Screen View → its object properties automatically highlight in the left panel. This already works in Spy for iOS and Android, so it would be great to have parity for Windows.

Does this affect you too? Vote below and drop a comment - especially if you’ve found a workaround! :speech_balloon:

Do you face this issue when using Spy Windows Objects?
  • :white_check_mark: Yes — I have this problem too
  • :wrench: Yes — and I found a workaround
  • :thinking: Not yet, but I can see it being useful
  • :cross_mark: No — this doesn’t affect my workflow
