Mark Weisler posted a new comment: I tried essentially your code and it worked properly for me. I have a Web page open and it contains the string of interest in the region Sikuli will be searching. Then I run... myReg= Region(100,100,500,600) myReg.highlight(2) myText = myReg.text() print myText myReg.find("Hitz") # succeeds as Hitz is found in the region wait(3) myReg.find("Hitzzzzzzzzzz") # fails as Hitzzzzzzzzzz is not found in the region #this appears as a FindFailed error in the IDE Please be sure the screen with the text has focus for Sikuli to see it. You may be encountering a known OCR issue with Sikuli. (Apparently OCR is not the most robust part of Sikuli at this time.) Another version of this using exception handling is below and it works properly also... #script: OCRDemo33 # now using exception handling... Settings.OcrTextSearch = True Settings.OcrTextRead = True myReg= Region(100,100,500,600) myReg.highlight(2) myText = myReg.text() print myText myReg.find("Hitz") # succeeds as Hitz is found in the region wait(1) try: myReg.find("Hitzzzzzzzzzz") print "found string somehow" #should not execute this line as Hitzzzzz is not there. pass # it is there except FindFailed: print("") #blank line print ("failed to find sought string") pass # just continue execution wait(2) try: myReg.find("Hitz") print("") #blank line print "found it again" pass # it is there except FindFailed: print ("failed to find sought string") pass # continue -- You received this question notification because you are a member of Sikuli Drivers, which is an answer contact for Sikuli. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~sikuli-driver Post to : sikuli-driver@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~sikuli-driver More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
