    <p>I'm having the following problem. I have a dropdown that is hidden so when I make the Select and run the test i get the following error:</p> <pre><code> org.openqa.selenium.ElementNotVisibleException: element not visible: Element is not currently visible and may not be manipulated (Session info: chrome=30.0.1599.101) </code></pre> <p>This is my select:</p> <pre><code>Select s = new Select(dropDown); s.selectByVisibleText("CHARGEBACK"); </code></pre> <p>Is there a walk around it to manipulate hidden elements?. I found the following code in one of the posts:</p> <pre><code> JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor) driver; jse.executeScript("arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true);", element); </code></pre> <p>This is the html code:</p> <pre><code> &lt;div class="ui-helper-hidden"&gt; &lt;select id="formLevel:levels_input" name="formLevel:levels_input"&gt; &lt;option value="541fac58-5ea8-44ef-9664-e7e48b6c6a3c"&gt;Seleccione un Registro&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="dafc799c-4d5e-4b02-a882-74cb6ad98902"&gt;SECURITY&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="e5416086-2036-4cd0-b23e-865747aa3f53"&gt;CALL CENTER&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="7ea4b4ea-4f06-4d27-9541-1b0cf3f2aa22"&gt;CHARGEBACK&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="0f915120-7b8f-4a33-b063-5d20a834b655"&gt;PREVENÇÃO A FRAUDE&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="a8ef13e8-f4a5-43b8-a668-b769f6988565"&gt;ANALISE DE CREDITO&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="83b65a26-d4cd-43d3-b3fa-2f7894ca454a"&gt;SUPORTE A CONTA&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="163d0db9-590c-47a7-a271-218b2d27d8d9"&gt;REGULARIZAÇÃO FINANCEIRA&lt;/option&gt; </code></pre> <p> And it doesn't work in this case. Any help would be appreciated.</p>

    1. COWhy don't you make a valid test case that makes it visible, e.g. `click this, then change the dropdown when the element is visible` It's bad test logic to manipulate hidden elements as users will not do this.

    2. COAlso, if the element is supposed to be visible, and its throwing this error, then I would check your selector. You may be selecting the wrong element.

    3. COThe selector is fine because i can find the element but I can't select the option. P.S added the html code.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
