I am not able to click on “Done” button after selecting values in a drop down. However, I am able to select values. A black color dialog is being displayed after selecting values. Please help folks.

UIautomatorviewer is not able to fetch other elements details like “Done”, “Home”, “Copy words” etc. after the black color dialog appears.

Can you find other element if you do not click on that drop down button?

@chetan_thummar,  
Thanks,  
Yes, I am able to find other elements before clicking on dropdown.  
But I am not able to find other elements after the dialog appears.

@sabya1992 : that could be because when drop down list display it has transparent background and because of that other ele do not display.

you can tap some where to close drop down list other wise you can ask developer about your issue. he can make it visible while having background.
