Answer 1

you could use the "Find children" activity on the parent element, so you could retrieve all the list elements.

You should search for "FIND_DESCENDANTS".

If your target client is Windows Forms Ap,you can refer the following:

You must use ui explorer to watch the element attribute

1. uiexplorer's "UI Frameworks" (from menu options/UI Frameworks) change to "UI Automation".
2. indicate element to select which subitem you want.

Then you can see down right selector editor display like "<uia automationid='ListViewSubItem-2' tableCol='2' tableRow='10' />". Watch the left side "visual tree", it show the subitem list. so now what you have to do is to get the item list(it show first subitem) and for each item to get subitem list,finally through get attribute activity to get the subitem value.

the pseudo flow like following: find_children activity=>for_each activity { find_children activity=> for_each activity { get_attribute activity} }

the first find_children's selector like "<uia automationid='1000' cls='SysListView32' />" and filter is like "<uia automationid='ListViewItem-*'/>". the second find_children's selector is for_each item and filter is like "<uia automationid='ListViewSubItem-1'/>". the "1" is subitem index.
