I have been evaluating 3 automation softwares, winautomation, automation anywhere and automate 8.
I can tell you I definitely like automate 8 the best, it has all the features I need and is the most user friendly. But there's 1 thing I really miss in Automate 8, and it's the move mouse to image function. Both of the other 2 softwares do have this function, you can use a rectangle to select a certain part of a page, and the software will than try to find this image on your screen, and if found, move your mouse to it. I'm currently automating software where there are buttons which can change position, and move mouse to object doesn't work on them. (I really tried everything, disabling and enabling certain aspect of the move mouse to object function.) I have managed to automate it but I had to use a huge workaround. Implementing the move mouse to image function would be great. ![]() Edited: 11/10/2011 at 07:32 AM by AutoMate Discussion Moderator |

Hi JordyV,
I will suggest that a Move Mouse to Image action be implemented. In the mean time, the buttons on your application's forms may be identifiable by just the Object name and Window title, does that simplfy it? Sometimes fewer criteria makes identifying the object more successful. ------------------------- - Rick Johnson Network Automation |

I would agree with JordyV. This feature would be a terrific feature to have added. In one phase of our tests, we essentially VNC into a Windows CE system which cannot utilize Automate functionality. With an implementation of image functions, this would allow us to automate tests on these platforms.

Hi Trevor,
We agree as well, this would be useful - and it is on the list of features to consider implementing. ------------------------- - Rick Johnson Network Automation |

I have come up with a way of searching a specified area for an image by using an external program to do it. Autohotkey is an application and scripting tool that can find an image within a screen. I have tied this into an example automate script that will find the image.
If you would like to try this out, you can feel free to do so. You can find the Autohotkey download at the following location. http://www.autohotkey.com/download/ You can change the find_image.txt extension to ahk to let the file work. Put the attached files in the C:\ directory. If you zero in closer to the location in the ahk file, it can find the image much more quickly than this task since it is checking a large area. Task Steps: (Right click, Select All, Copy to copy to the clipboard. Steps can then be pasted into the AutoMate Task Builder)

Hello, everybody, I need to perform a task similar in this topic ... So I decided to do everything poprobovovat as here described. And I had the first problem immediately, pictures that I put in the search for less than 10x10 pixels is not looking for a script. why is that? and whether it is possible to somehow fix it? |
