Wait - for Done on browser status bar before next QM Comman

[agent1]

Generally, This question would be for Gintaras, but anyone's help is appreciated...

I am working with a list of web links in Excel that are text only, not Links
and copying the text, and pasting into FireFox address bar, then clicking go.

Question is this, Is there a command to have QM WAIT for the status bar of the
browser to say Done before continuing?

Thanks in advance for any help!!

I did not try but at least one of the following should work:

1. Wait for accessible object. Use the 'Find accessible object' dialog. To wait, specify a wait time in it. Tip: to search faster, click 'Options' and check 'search in reverse order'.

2. Wait for image. Use the 'Find image' dialog. Can wait for 'Done' text (as scanned image) or for the not busy wheel image.

Thank you for fast reply.

I am Intermediate programmer, and I think option 2 of your reply is what I need.
Do I need to create Dialog 'Find Image' and add it with the macro???

[Gintaras]

No, these dialogs (in the floating toolbar) just help you to add commands to your macro. In this case - scan.

Thanks Gintaras,

I implemented Both options, and they are working great !!
