RobotFramework: Switching window after clicking into a new window

Is there a way to adjust the focus (i.e bring to front) the second window after a click a link that goes to this second window in RobotFramework? I have some code that does screenshot after click and it only shows the first window

Click link  xpath=//*[contains(., "Download certificate")]
sleep  20
Select Window    Title=Certificate
Page Screenshot  Completion-Certificate

I know that the title of the popup window is Certificate but i get error

ValueError: Unable to locate window with title 'Certificate'

You can switch to multiple windows by title, URL or Window Handle ID. For this purpose use "Select Window" keyword from Robot Framework.

Example 1:

open browser  http://qaTechTesting.com Chrome
click element  (//img[@alt='Raghwen Linkedin Profile'])[1]
Select Window  Raghwendra Sonu

Example 2:

open browser  http://qaTechTesting.com Chrome
click element (//img[@alt='Raghwen Linkedin Profile'])[1]
@{list1}  get window handles
:FOR  ${Win} in ${list1}
\  Select Window   ${Win}

For more details read this: http://robotframework.org/Selenium2Library/Selenium2Library.html#Select%20Window

Yes you can do it by adding the following script-

Switch Window  locator=NEW
//This will take you to the latest window launched.

It worked for me.

I think, you are trying to test pop window which appears when you click on a link. You can use below solution,

Select Window    ${windowId}    # Focus popup/required window
