How to Work with Element Selection Settings
In OGL Editor, Element Selector Settings allow you to select Element Text, Element Title or Id Attributes of the page elements of the application you’re working with.
Managing Fusion Account for Only English (Default) Language
Element Selection Settings are unchecked by default in OGL Guide Editor for Fusion applications. When selecting an element in Guide Editor for a single language account, try to choose Fusion-specific selector. If there’s no Fusion-specific selector available for the selected element:
- Click the Settings gear in the top-right corner of the Editor
- Enable ‘Use Element Text’ and ‘Use Element Title’ options.
This will ensure selection of Title and Attribute of the object and will result in fewer element selection issues during guide upgrades.
Managing Fusion Account for Multiple Languages
For multi-language accounts, it is recommended to disable Element Selection Settings. The selection of Title and Attribute of the objects will result in more element selection issues during guide upgrades because of difference between elements text/titles in default language (English) and other languages.
Managing Non-Fusion Accounts
For Non-Fusion applications, Element Selection Settings are enabled by default. When selecting an object, by default the Guide editor will look for the Title or Attribute of the Object. They are good for capturing the element because they tend to be constant and are unique in a page. This ideally is the best practice for choosing Selectors for Non-Fusion accounts.
