Hi @Short
As per my understanding, you can use Find Text activity to search the text on the screen within the particular frame or selection by using indicate on screen option and point out the respected section/frame in that activity.
This is probably a really stupid question but how do you work out the pixel offset? I’d worked out that it would be the clipping region but I have no idea how to set it around the section I want
go to record wizard and start recording then hit F3 to choose “select region” and drag the mouse to get the region.
later u can see the offset in the clipping region like this.
I’ve done that, got the region and added the ClippingRegion into a Text Exists activity, however the “No” message box pops up even though the figure is on the screen in the set clipping region
I’ve attached the window, highlighted the region (to make sure it’s looking at the right part), search the region for the text, changed the condition and the “No” message box is still appearing.
can you change “wait for ready” property to complete.
Anyways can you give url where you wants to search that text or could you please attach workflow.
Yeah, to search a section of the screen, i.e. “100.00” could appear on the screen but if it’s not in the correct column, I don’t want it to be considered as found.
@vvaidya’s s.xaml stops working at “Find element”, I’m not sure if it’s because I’m using the community edition as the “Open browser” didn’t work until I deleted it and added the version from my editon
I’m trying to find if text exists in a notepad file and for this i have used text exists activity. Though the text is present in notepad file, it is giving not found message.
You can scrap the text by using the Data Scrapping method. After that it will return data in a data table, Now use For Each Row and If activity to match the required data.
