I am interfacing with a web page and will be entering data using Foxtrot RPA.  The first entry page extends beyond the screen and will need to scroll to continue enterering data.  I am unable to get Foxtrot to recognize the scroll bar.  I have used Mouse sequence but when i replay the step, I get target not found.  I tried targeting the bottom scroll arrow and sending a click but Foxtrot does not recognize the area of the screen that i am targeting (?).  If I am unable to resolve this issue, we have have to abandon Foxtrot as an option.  Please assist.  Thank you!

Try sending a Page Down keystroke to the web page. They will need to use the Send Value action and choose the keyboard. Then change the behavior and speed to None and Very slow. Just make sure to test it first from the actual keyboard. If you can't get it to work with the keyboard itself, then RPA can't do it either.
