You need to edit an object when its name or properties change. Also, you can place an object under another parent object or make it independent.
To edit an object:
- From the Expand Menu, click Develop.
- Click the Objects tab.
- Do one of the following:
- To edit a parent object, click Create Object.
- To edit a child object, from the left page, select the parent object under which you want to add, click the Edit Object button ().
- Edit the required fields. You can also add or remove object properties by clicking the Add or Remove buttons respectively. The Edit Object screen resizes up to the full screen.
- Click Save.
The object is saved with the revised fields or properties.Â
To know how to change each object detail, refer to Adding New Objects.
If you want to change the locator type and the locator value for an object, you must disable its SmartLocator checkbox.
All the objects captured under different hierarchies can be transferred into another parent object tree or made independent. To change the Object Hierarchy, perform the following steps:
On the left pane of the Objects tab, select the object that you want to move.
Drag and drop the selected object under another parent object or make it independent within the left pane.
