Error handling

Parameter Name

Description

Throw error & stop

When an error occurs, the action will trigger an error and stop the execution of the entire app.

Retry command

If an error occurs, the action will retry the command in an attempt to resolve the issue and continue the process.

Ignore error & continue

When an error occurs, the action will be ignored, and the workflow will continue without interruption.

Variables produced

This action doesn't produce any variables.


Using Variables in Conditions

Parameters with {x} icons indicate that variables can be inserted. You can use previously created variables for any input field, such as window dimensions or window titles. This is particularly useful when you need to resize windows to dynamic dimensions based on other parts of your workflow.


Notes

  • Before using this command, ensure that the target window exists and is accessible.

  • Window dimensions are specified in pixels.

  • If targeting a window by title or class name, make sure the identifier is unique enough to select the correct window.

  • When using RegEx option, ensure your regular expression pattern correctly matches the desired window.

  • Some windows may have minimum or maximum size constraints that cannot be overridden.
