Status: Open => Answered
RaiMan proposed the following answer:
--- OCR / getText from Region
the currently (rc2) available Region.text() is based on tesseract and still
experimental. It is neither reliable nor flexible nor configurable (bug
710586). They work on an optimized version for rc3 (I do not know the status).
If you want to contribute in any aspect, contact Sean (Tsung-Hsiang Chang
<[email protected]>) directly.
--- relative coordinates
all find and action commands are relative to a given region. If you use them
without a region like find(), click(), ... they operate on the standard region
SCREEN, which is a constant reference to Screen(0) (you can find more in the
docs).
so you either say reg.find() to restrict to the region reg or use the with reg:
construct, which redirects all unqualified functions inside the block to reg.
--- set new text in input field
many people use a find() operation with an image having target offset, to
locate an input field and click on the target offset to give focus to the input
field. normally this ends up in the current content to be selected. Then you
use type() or paste() to fill in text and hit enter or tab.
For fixed layouts I prefer to only find one fixed spot of the dialog window and
then use calculated/measured offsets to click (give focus to) the input fields.
In many cases you can use tab to step through the fields.
--- recognize input fields
Sikuli has no feature to recognize anything by GUI element type - only image
and text search to define a pixel location on the screen to act on. The script
workflow designer has to have this knowledge and translate it to Sikuli
scripting as matching images.
There is one exception: the App class is able to return the app windows as
regions (some restrictions apply - look docs).
