selenium.ElementNotInteractableException: element not interactable: Element is not currently visible and may not be manipulated error Selenium Java

Question

I want to select the Code 128 (standard) from select menu, but whatever i did, i could not manage to select any option from the menu.

WebDriver   driver = Driver.get();
driver.manage().window().setPosition(new Point(-1000, 0));
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
driver.get("https://www.barcode-generator.org/");
BrowserUtils.waitFor(2);
driver.findElement(By.className("iubenda-cs-close-btn")).click();
BrowserUtils.waitFor(2);
JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
WebElement selectElement = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//select[@id='code_selector']"));
Select select = new Select(selectElement);
List<WebElement> options = select.getOptions();
BrowserUtils.waitFor(4);
System.out.println("options.size() = " + options.size());
select.selectByVisibleText("Code 128 (standard)");
driver.findElement(By.id("barcode_data")).sendKeys("abc");

And I got this response:

Element is not currently visible and may not be manipulated Looks like the option is not there opr the select field is disabled? — Jens

Though the <option> with text Code 128 (standard) is within the html-select tag but the <select> tag contains the attribute style="display: none;":

<select style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); display: none;" id="code_selector">

Hence Selenium won't be able to interact with it.

Solution

To click on the element with text with text Code 128 (standard) you need to Mouse Hover the parent element and then click on the <button> with text Create Barcode and you can use the following locator strategies:

Code Block:

driver.get("https://www.barcode-generator.org/");
new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(5)).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.cssSelector("a.iubenda-cs-close-btn"))).click();
new Actions(driver).moveToElement(new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(5)).until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.cssSelector("figure#code_figure_20")))).build().perform();
new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(5)).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//div[@class='create-overlay']//div[@class='inner-cell']//button[@data-choose='20' and contains(., 'Create Barcode')]"))).click();
