I've used AutoIT to some degree, especially with Windows OS dialogs such as the Print dialog. Did not realize it was installed with Watir, that must have been a recent change.
Snippet:
# Windows OS system dialogs (print, save, open file, etc...)
SYSTEM_DLG = "[Class:#32770]"
OPEN = "Open"
CANCEL = "Cancel"
SYSTEM_DLG = "[Class:#32770]"
OPEN = "Open"
CANCEL = "Cancel"
$autoit = WIN32OLE.new('AutoItx3.Control')
def WBE_Windows_System_Print(action = "")
# wait up to 5 seconds for print dialog to appear
# wait up to 5 seconds for print dialog to appear
$autoit.WinWaitActive(SYSTEM_DLG, "", 5)
if (action == CANCEL)
$autoit.ControlClick(SYSTEM_DLG,"",CANCEL)
print "I hit cancel button"
else
$autoit.Send("{ENTER}")
print "I hit enter...now you manually retrieve printout"
end
end
if (action == CANCEL)
$autoit.ControlClick(SYSTEM_DLG,"",CANCEL)
print "I hit cancel button"
else
$autoit.Send("{ENTER}")
print "I hit enter...now you manually retrieve printout"
end
end
I found I was having issue with clicking on the final print button in the system dialog, so I just sent an Enter key, which defaults to hitting print in Windows.
Hope this helps,

I think popup support has the worst documentation in Watir project. I plan to write about popups in the book, but it is not high on my list. One of the reasons that it is low on the list is that I never had to work with them, so I have almost no experience.Željko
