xType Too Slow? [Mac only issue with XType]

UI.Vision RPA Bug Reports

Was trying out xType on this site:
https://app.hlas.com.sg/car-protect360/quote/get-started

The “Search car models” field requires xType, but the field doesn’t receive the typed message after the “green screen” computer vision disappears.

What should I do?

This is what I used:

    },

    }
  ]
}

I ran your macro and it seems to work for me. This is what I get:

Maybe try with medium or even slow replay speed, as the website seems to load quite slow. It could be that in your case the website was not ready yet to receive keystrokes.

It’s strange. For my Mac the dropdown options didn’t show… but on my Windows PC it did, just like in your video.

Ouch, yes, I confirmed this problem. It works on Windows and Linux, but fails on Mac! => I logged this as a bug.
