Please help !! I managed to install python 3.5.3 (32 bit) and pywinauto. I have started going through the getting started guide for pywinauto. I am using the inspect tool. I have launched the application using the code:
from pywinauto import Application
app = Application().start(r"C:\Program Files (x86)\Trane\TRACE 3D Plus\TRACE™ 3D Plus.exe").
Now as I understood to tell python what the window is we use the:
dlg = app['TRACE™ 3D Plus']
In this screen I have value for automation id and class name using the inspect tool. Please tell me the syntax for clicking on that button using the automation id. For example, a button on my application has the automation id "Airflows" which is seen in the inspect tool. Now how can I click on this using pywinauto?
Automation id can be used with more detailed window specification (see Window Specification chapter in the Getting Started Guide). In your case it should look so:
dlg = app['TRACE™ 3D Plus']
dlg.child_window(auto_id='Airflows').invoke() # or .click() that just calls an action
# or
dlg.child_window(auto_id='Airflows').click_input() # true click with moving cursor
