Setting additional capability "moz:useNonSpecCompliantPointerOrigin"

[Nicolas]

Hi all

I need to set the firefox capability "moz:useNonSpecCompliantPointerOrigin" that has been introduced recently.

Has anybody succeeded to set it with the c# language bindings?

Here is the snipped that shows how I tried it:

myFirefoxOptions.AddAdditionalCapability("moz:useNonSpecCompliantPointerOrigin",  true);

new FirefoxDriver(myFirefoxOptions)

I get a WebDriverException that says "Invalid moz:firefoxOptions field moz:useNonSpecCompliantPointerOrigin".

Am I doing it wrong, or shall i file an issue for that.

Best regards,

Nicolas

Forgot go mention that I am using latest Firefox, GeckoDriver and Selenium Versions...

Try the AddAdditionalCapability overload that takes three arguments instead of two, and pass `true` for the third argument. For example:

options.AddAdditionalCapability("moz:useNonSpecCompliantPointerOrigin", true, true);

As an aside, it’s interesting that you feel you require this capability; the .NET bindings already do the math to calculate actions offsets from the top-left of the element instead of the visible center (which is what this capability does).
