Wait For the Element in Some Activities

Hi Everyone!

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to share with you an idea for a new feature that could enhance the experience for the members of this community.

I was going through the project steps and I found out if we could have a feature in activities named as below, which could wait for the element itself.

• Click on element

• Get element property

• Input to browser (all cases are for both GUI and browser)

For example in some cases while automating browsers. We perform the activities as defined above. But sometimes the browser takes time, which is unexpected, to load a page or some element to appear. So in this case we add the time in the property section of the particular activity, which is obviously more than expected or average time, to get the best result.
Such cases slow down the processing time of a Bot and might have the chance of error. We never know the loading time of the browser or any element to appear.

I would suggest there should be an additional feature in the property section under the above mentioned activities. If selected, a Bot should wait for the element itself and then complete the process. This would help reduce the processing time and increase the accuracy.

I believe this feature would add value to the community by improving efficiency. I understand that there may be technical limitations or resources required to implement this change, but I wanted to bring it to your attention for consideration.

Thank you for your time and for creating this wonderful community. I look forward to your feedback!
