Urgent: Accessing aria-hidden attribute on divtag in Chrome

Hi, Ranorexers,

Does anyone know whether aria attributes are supported in the Chrome plugin? Ranorex doesn't find it in my scenario. I read one post from 2018 that it's possible that it is a chrome specific issue. There was no follow-up conclusion though. (https://www.ranorex.com/forum/getting-attribute-failed-on-flavor-element-t12310.html)

Scenario:
1. Select Type droplist value
2. Triggers an overlay that appears to cover the form

Issue:
Intermittently, the values for the Number: are not entered because of the overlay state. This causes the record addition to fail on submit because it is a required field.

Solution I've tried:
Wait for the mstrProgress divtag with the img aria-hidden attr to change to false

Steps 7 and 8 fail to enter Number:

I'm open to any suggestion that will fix this so that the test passes 100% of the time; right now, it randomly fails (10-15%) because the form doesn't have a value for the txtNumber. I've tried many things in the recent months, thinking I have a fix, but it fails out of the blue. So much time spent on this...it's preventing me from running through DevOps pipelines because of too many false failures.

Snapshot is attached in reply post.....

Frustrated for sure!
