Will Image exists wait for the image to show up

hi, my question is will the robot wait for an Image to be available using “Image Exists” activity.
What i noticed is it is returning false if it is not shown without waiting for it to be available.

Hello,

No, it will not wait. You can use Find Image and On Image Appear activities for that. You can set TimeoutMS property to set how long to wait for the image to show up.

Hello!

Have you tried to use “Image Exists” inside a While Loop? So the robot will wait until the image appears and then continue.

Example:

image

Hi,
Indeed it WILL wait for the image to appear but only for interval defined in TimeoutMS.
If the image doesn’t appear within TimeoutMS the activity returns false.
