Combo box selected value

[krishnakanth19]

When I,m trying to get the selected value from a combo box it is throwing an error like "unsupported command exception". I used the following code.

Select locatoin = new Select(driver.findElement(By.id("cmbLocation"))); String option = locatoin .getFirstSelectedOption().getText();

What are the other possible ways to get the selected option?

here what I did for selecting the combo, try using one of the below method to get values of dropdown -

public void select_combo_by_id(String ID,String select_text){ WebElement env_combo = driver.findElement(By.id(ID)); ComboBox debs_combo = new ComboBox(env_combo); debs_combo.expand(); driver.findElement(By.name(select_text)).click(); }

Thanks for your response.But what I need is to get which option is selected.

new Select is unsupported command. find your combo box and try to get text directly.

The following are the element properties of a combo box. It is selected as "No". Can you suggest me how to get the selected element?

[heilwood]

value pattern for this element is supported or not? i need to know what patterns this combo box supporting. You can check in inspect or UI verify

[krishnakanth19]

It is showing "Value Pattern Available" as "False".

Hi , I have just started with winium i h ave tried the above code but there is an error in combobox. please let me know the package which needs to added

[heilwood]

my code c# public void SelectValue(IWebElement elem, string valueText) { var cmb = elem.ToComboBox(); cmb.Expand(); var Actions = new Actions(_driver); var s = new Stopwatch(); s.Start(); while (!elem.FindElement(By.Name(valueText).Displayed) && s.Elapsed < TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10)) { Actions.SendKeys(Keys.PageDown).Perform(); } elem.FindElement(By.Name(valueText)).Click(); s.Stop();}`

I'm not sure that this line of code will work Actions.SendKeys(Keys.PageDown).Perform(); because i fully re-wrote keyboard libraries, but you can try.

Hello,

I had a similar issue but at the end, I managed to get the selected value from a combo-box with the below code:

ComboBox comboBox = new ComboBox(anElement); String value = comboBox.getAttribute("Name");

Hope this helps!

Hello, I am using Java with Winium and I'm having a problem to select an option from the drop down. Using Inspect I can locate dropdown with name/AutomationId but not the options, so I can click on drop down but can not select any option. Is there anyone can help me out here?Thank you!
