Session based --- Wait until step gets completed and click on next button

[RoNYouth]

    ControlClick("Traffic- wizard", "&Remove","Button4") LINE 2
    Sleep(3000)
    ControlClick("Traffic- wizard", "&Next >","Button6")     LINE 4
    Sleep(3000)

In the above code i want my code to behave in manner if Line 2 gets completed than only it should go forward to Line 4 but i font want to use Sleep as sometime application can work quickly but punting sleep means it would wait until that time. Can anyone tell me how to write session based codes in AutoIT

Just loop until the next button appears checking for the control handle...

Which function to be used sorry but i am new to AutoIT

I'm not really sure what it is you are trying to do?

 

global $bool = false;
    
func Objective1()
   ControlClick("Traffic- wizard", "&Remove","Button4") LINE 2
   Sleep(3000)
   $bool = true
ENDFUNC
 
func Objective2()
 if $bool Then
   ControlClick("Traffic- wizard", "&Next >","Button6")     LINE 4
 EndIf
   Sleep(3000)
ENDFUNC

Try something like this (untested) : 

Example ()

Func Example ()
  Local $hCtrl, $iCount = 0
  While True
    $hCtrl = ControlGetHandle ("Traffic- wizard", "&Next >","Button6")
    If $hCtrl Then ExitLoop
    $iCount += 1
    If $iCount > 50 Then Return MsgBox ($MB_SYSTEMMODAL,"Error", "Unable to get control")
    Sleep (100)
  WEnd
  ControlClick("Traffic- wizard", "",$hCtrl)
EndFunc

or use my udf and the logging udf to see what is happening

I like to use this method with either IsVisible or IsEnabled depending on how the screen reacts.

it's much more coding but it's faster to run the automation.

 

$iTimer = TimerInit()
    While 1
        If ControlCommand("Traffic-wizard", "&Next", "Button6", "IsVisible", "") = 1 Then
            ExitLoop
        EndIf

        If TimerDiff($iTimer) >= 30000 Then ;What's the max time until it throws an error? 30 seconds
            MsgBox(0, "Failed", "Next screen failed to display within the allowed time")
            Exit 2
        EndIf

    WEnd
    
    ;Now ControlClick the button
    ControlClick("Traffic-wizard", "&Next >", "Button6")
