Get element size using Selenium with C#

Question

I am trying to check if flash video is minimized or maximized. Tried to do something like this:

var video = Program.Driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//object[contains(@id, 'player_api')]"));

int videoSize = video.Size.Width;

if (videoSize > 1024)
{
     //Do something...
}

But I am getting fixed size of HTML element. Any suggestion?

As far as I can see you can locate the following element:

var video = Program.Driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//*[@id='player_api']/param[6]"));

Then get its value and then find the video sizes in the flash object. You can even deserialize the value to C# object from the JSON. Check the image: http://screencast.com/t/sYu3DYxo6V

Thank you, what is going to happen with the parameters when window is maximized? Are they going to change or they are static ?

You should try but I assume that they should be different. :)

Is there any possibility to get that maximize button inside of the flash player as an element ?

I don't think that WebDriver support it natively. However, you can try to automate it with Sikuli- sikuli.org/ + you can check the following article- toolsqa.com/selenium-webdriver/…
