Image Search Library

[Sedoc94 1]

Hello,

So I am new to AutoIt and just practising and so far I like it very much and pretty easy to do.

I have this for the normal pic:

Do
    $result = _ImageSearch("example.png", 1, $x, $y, 10)
    If $result = 1 Then
        MsgBox(0, "", "IMAGE FOUND")
    EndIf
Until $result == 1

This works fine..

And I have this for the pic with some color added on it which should be seen as transparent by the ImageSearch function:

The color on there which should be seen as transparent is 0xF700FF

so I did:

Do
    $result = _ImageSearch("example2.png", 1, $x, $y, 10, 0xF700FF)
    If $result = 1 Then
        MsgBox(0, "", "IMAGE FOUND")
    EndIf
Until $result == 1

But for this one it somehow doesnt find the image while the image is showing on the screen :[

Have I done something wrong?

Thank you very much for your help!

you are using the last parameter wrong. its supposed to be a number from 0 - 255 and used when the color of the image your looking for would vary in shades. using the images on this browser, i used this code and got the correct results

#include <ImageSearch.au3>

$x1=0
$y1=0

WinActivate("Image Search Library - AutoIt Forums - Google Chrome", "")
WinWaitActive("Image Search Library - AutoIt Forums - Google Chrome", "")

$result = _ImageSearch(@DesktopDir & "\sq.bmp",1,$x1,$y1,0)
    if $result=1 Then
        MsgBox(0, "", "found")
    Else
        MsgBox(0, "", "not found")
        Exit
    EndIf

And one more suggestion. I find that using BMP's get correct results more often...could just be me though :-p
