Can't find element in a frame

[gallex]

when I use : ··· frame id_of_frame click xpath

result :  ERROR - cannot find  xpath

but when I use live mode, it 's OK, very strange: 

frame id_of_frame live

when entry live mode,  I type `click XPATH` , it's OK。

Hi @gallex you cannot use frame step in live mode, so I would assume the element is not nested within a frame? Another thing to check if XPath can be clicked in live mode but not at run time is to dock your chrome dev tools on a separate popup instead of docking to the side because sometimes when docking to the side, the responsiveness of the page causes the XPath of the element to change.

Yes, I can't direct step in live mode, but if I add live directive after frame directive is seems OK, is it right ?. I'm very sure the element is in a frame , because I had try find that element in root, it no exists yet.

Hi @gallex the live step is independent of the frame step. Could you share the webpage or the html of page for us to take a look?
