If so please give the command and an example using the command

There's a few things you could do.

One is to use the pixelsearch() function and search for a unique colour to that picture; if the picture is unique and you know where the picture will show up, use the pixelchecksum() function to determine if there is a match. Check out the AutoIt help file for examples; you need to be very specific with what you want to do.

Search in the "Example Scripts" section of the forum. There have been several UDF libraries with this kind of functionality (searching for images/bitmaps on the screen)

Some are faster than others, others have more features... (like transparency or color variation support)... it depends on what you're trying to do.

Hope that helps!
