FlexMenu Object
Note: Following the retirement of the Adobe Flash Player, UFT One no longer supports the Flex Add-in out of the box.
If you require the Flex Add-in, contact OpenText Support.
Description
A Flex menu control.
IMPORTANT
When recording, if you select an item from a FlexMenu object that has the same name as another item in the object, the step is recorded using the item name instead of the item index.
Workaround: In the editor, change the item name recorded in the step to the item index.
