Validate

The button shows the status of the selector by checking the validity of the selector definition and the visibility of the target element on the screen.
The Validate button has three states:
Selector is being validated
Valid selector
Invalid selector
Modified selector, revalidate

Indicate Element

Indicates a new UI element to replace the previous one.

Indicate Anchor

Enables you to choose an anchor relative to the target UI element.

Repair

Enables you to re-indicate the same target UI element and repair the selector. This operation does not completely replace the previous selector. The button is available only when the selector is invalid.

Highlight

Brings the target element in the foreground. The highlight stays on until it's switched off. The button is enabled only if the selector is valid.

Options

Contains several options:
UI Frameworks - Changes the technology used to determine UI elements and their selectors. The following options are available:
Default – UiPath proprietary method. Usually works fine with all types of user interfaces.
Active Accessibility – an earlier solution from Microsoft for making apps accessible. It is recommended that you use this option with legacy software, when the Default one does not work.
UI Automation – the improved accessibility model from Microsoft. It is recommended that you use this option with newer apps, when the Default one does not work.

Delayed Restore - Enabled by default. Delay restoring the UiExplorer window until after the selector data is loaded. Use this option when indicating UI elements that auto-close on focus lost, such as drop-downs or overlays.
Trigger Selector - Ensures the uniqueness of a UI element within its parent while increasing its monitoring accuracy. Use this option when generating selectors for trigger activities.

Highlight

Highlights the selected element from the Visual Tree in real time. The highlight stays on until it's switched off.

Show Search Options

Displays the search box and search filter options.

Search Box

Enables you to look for a specific string. If an exact match is not found, nodes containing the nearest match are displayed.
Wildcards are supported.
Depending on the attribute selected from the Search by drop-down list, the search can be case sensitive.
Note: The search only looks for matches in the tree structure under the selected UI object.

Search by

Filters your search to a selected attribute or a selector. The contents of this drop-down list change according to the selected UI element.
Note: If Search by is set to Selector, you can only input one node in the <attribute name1='value1' ... /> format.

Children Only

Limit your search to the first level children of the selected node. By default, this check box is not selected.
