Question #682295 on SikuliX changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/682295
Jeff Harmon posted a new comment: I have a similar issue to the original reporter, though my primary display is the external monitor. I have a Retina MacbookPro connected to an external display. The external display has a resolution of 2560x1440 but is not treated as Retina by MacOS (Big Sur). I have the dock on the external display, which for Sikuli I believe means it is Screen 0. Sikuli sees Screen 1 as the native screen of the MacBook Pro (Retina) positioned to the left through Display configuration. Here is Screen.showMonitors() from Java using Sikuli API: *** monitor configuration [ 2 Screen(s)] *** *** Primary is Screen 0 Screen 0: R[0,0 2560x1440]@S(0) Screen 1: R[-1680,284 1680x1050]@S(1) *** end monitor configuration *** With the configuration this way, I can reliably find images on Screen 0, but the pixel dimensions are so far off on Screen 1 (the Retina screen) I can't reliably do finds. Sikuli API doesn't seem to be capturing things correctly on the Retina screen in this configuration. See https://github.com/harmonjeff/sikuli-retina- bug/tree/master/FailedCaptureImages To illustrate the issue I created a test Java application that uses the Sikuli API to capture the screens. I opened up two windows of TextEdit, placing one on each screen. I sized the TextEdit window to cover the entire screen (except the dock on Screen 0). You can see the source here: https://github.com/harmonjeff/sikuli-retina-bug In researching what could be going on I discovered a system property that seems to make things function correctly as far as Siklui API capturing and finding images using Java. If I set the "sun.java2d.uiScale" property to be "1.0" then the captures in the sample application function correctly. https://github.com/harmonjeff/sikuli-retina- bug/tree/master/SuccessCaptureImages This solution works for me with everything except that my use case for Sikuli API is to drive an application using reference images I capture using Siklui beforehand. Images captured using Siklui on the Retina display do not match well when the application is on the non-Retina screen and vice-versa. I can capture the reference images to be used by the UI automated testing from both but I need to detect if the application is on the Retina screen or the non-Retina screen to know which reference images to use. The best way I have seen to detect if an application window is on a Retina screen in Java 9+ is in the same code, the isRetina method. The method only works if the system property is not defined. I don't have a way to both detect the application is running in a Retina screen and have the capture/find Sikuli API functions work properly. -- You received this question notification because your team Sikuli Drivers is an answer contact for SikuliX. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~sikuli-driver Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~sikuli-driver More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
