Right click failure while playback locally in Synthetic click path

[chaitanya]

Hi Folks,

Here I'm trying to record a click path workflow, able to record but not successfully playback the recorded events, facing an issue at right click event. I guess JavaScript event help us to resolve this, but I'm not supposed to be done this before.
Can anyone help me with example please?

Best Regards

Chaitanya

Hello @chaitanya ,
If you have already created the clickpath. Then select the particular browser monitoring --> from top edit --> click on recorded clickpath --> give appropriate name --> from dropdown event type select javascript --> select the number after the event page where right-click event need to be added --> then use below script for right click (from internet)

<script>
const div = document.getElementById("myDiv");
div.addEventListener("contextmenu", (e) => {e.preventDefault()});
</script>

Cheers!

Hi RN,

error
Playback error: Exception was thrown by the JavaScript code: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'addEventListener').

I'm not JS expert. You may give a try

https://intellipaat.com/community/11740/javascript-simulate-right-click-through-code

function rightClick(element) {
var evt = element.ownerDocument.createEvent('MouseEvents');
var RIGHT_CLICK_BUTTON_CODE = 2; // the same for FF and IE
evt.initMouseEvent('click', true, true,
element.ownerDocument.defaultView, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, false,
false, false, false, RIGHT_CLICK_BUTTON_CODE, null);
return !element.dispatchEvent(evt);
}
