Edit.Get(image) command

Device ID^*

Device

The device for this command.

Label^*

Media

The image that appears on, or related to, the edit field.

The image should be in JPEG, PNG, or BMP format.

You can select a file that already resides in the Perfecto repository or select a file from your computer that is then uploaded to the Perfecto repository. To learn more about the Perfecto repository, see Manage the repository. Click the Select media link, browse to the file, and then click SELECT.

Label position

String

Left | Right | Above | Below | Left-Above | Left-Below | Right-Above | Right-Below

The label position relative to the edit field.

• Left: The label is to the left of the searched edit field.

• Right: The label is to the right of the searched edit field.

• Above: The label is above the searched edit field.

• Below: The label is below the searched edit field.

• Left-Above: The label is to the left and above the edit field.

• Left-Below: The label is to the left and below the edit field.

• Right-Above: The label is to the right and above the edit field.

• Right-Below: The label is to the right and below the edit field.

Label offset

String

This value can be in pixels or in percentage of screen height (0-100). For percentage, use the % sign. Example: 20%

Used alongside the Label position parameter. If the label position is None, then the label offset is 0. Otherwise, the label offset default is 10%.

Label inline

String

Horizontal | Vertical | None

The label alignment, in line with the edit field.

When the Label position is Left or Right, the default is Horizontal.

Lines

Number

The number of text lines to be retrieved from the edit field.

Result variable

String

The variable name to receive the edit field text. The text will always be available in the report.

Analysis source

String

Primary | Native | Camera | Auto

The source for retrieving the screen content.

• Primary: The screenshot taken from the device (higher resolution but slower performance).

• Native: Native device controls.

• Camera: The screenshot is taken from the video stream (lower resolution but faster performance).

• Auto: Native device controls, if available. Otherwise, digital screen image, if available. Otherwise, analog screen image.

Timeout

Number

The time, in seconds, to wait for the label to appear.

For a dynamic screen, specify the expected waiting time for the label to appear. Example: page load time

The timeout contains the system analysis time. For this reason, consider specifying at least 20 seconds.

Report

String

All | All on error | Screenshot | Screenshot on error | Text | None

The value to display in the report.

Screenshot: Displays screenshots.

Screenshot on error: Display screenshots only for actions in error.

Text: Displays screen text.

All: Displays screenshot and text.

All on error: Always displays text and but only displays screenshots for actions in error.

None: Display nothing.

Consider reducing the resolution in very long scripts that result in large report files.

Threshold

Number

The acceptable match level percentage, between 20 and 100.

Values that are too low can lead to a false positive result, while values that are too high can lead to a false negative result.

Scroll and search

String

False | True

Scrolls until the label is found. Scroll cannot be used together with a positive timeout value because the parameters dictate a different behavior when the needle is not found. When scrolling is enabled, the timeout must be zero.

Scroll results in a longer execution time.

Number

The maximum number of scroll actions to perform before returning.

Finding the label will stop the scrolling.

Effective values are in the range of 0-100.

Repository key

String

The full repository path, including directory and file name, where to save the screen text.

When using commands that utilize files from the repository, the paths to the files are specified as repository keys. A repository key consists of the subarea and the path to the file.

For example, to specify a file called myImage.jpg stored in the images folder located in the PRIVATE subarea, specify the key as PRIVATE:images/myImage.jpg.

The text will always be available in the report.

Label top

String

The top value of the image area defining the label.

The value is in pixels. Default is the entire image.

Label height

String

The height value of the image area defining the label.

The value is in pixels. Default is the entire image.

Label left

String

The left value of the image area defining the label.

The value is in pixels. Default is the entire image.

Label width

String

The width value of the image area defining the label.

The value is in pixels. Default is the entire image.

Match mode

String

Same size | Any size | Bounded size

The needle comparison method.

• Same Size: Needle and haystack are from the same origin (device screen) and size. Matching is faster and simpler.

• Any Size: Needle and haystack are either not from the same origin (needle is from another device or another source) or not in the same size (different ratio or size). Matching is slower and more complex.

  Selecting Any Size increases the analysis time. The timeout values should be increased accordingly.

• Bounded Size: Same as Any Size with restrictions on possible needle sizes. This mode can decrease the Any Size analysis time by using apriori knowledge on needle sizes or by decreasing the size of a haystack.

OCR - profile

String

Default | Document Conversion Accuracy | Document Conversion Speed | Document Archiving Accuracy | Document Archiving Speed | Book Archiving Accuracy | Book Archiving Speed | Text Extraction Accuracy | Text Extraction Speed | Field Level Recognition | Barcode Recognition

Use when text cannot be found on the device screen.

Try all profiles with the word accuracy. Per profile, try changing the DPI (96 or 300 or 120).

OCR - Analysis mode

String

Full | Automatic | Manual

The image analysis mode. The device screen may contain text and images.

• Automatic: OCR distinguishes between text and images, filtering out images.

• Manual: OCR assumes text only. Use alongside the Inverted text parameter.

• Full: OCR tries both automatic and manual.

This parameter is not relevant when using native screen source.

OCR - Inverted text

String

Any | Yes | No

The text appearance, likely to appear in inverted colors (dark text on light background). Use only if 'Analysis mode' is set to 'Manual'.
