I have this application that I want to automate.
I need to click the button named "Leggi", but I'm stuck because this button is inside a custom control without name or class.

pywinauto can search the control through all levels (the whole sub tree) except top level windows.

So custom control can be skipped in a search chain of window specifications.

Can you post your code by editing the question? And full traceback please. I can't read your mind on what you've tried exactly.
