Sikuli IDE does not have any debugging feature. If you want your script to be executed, you have to run it.

So if you want to get some debugging information you have to use print.

If you want some lines not to be executed on run, you have to comment them.

You might use exit() to stop after some code is processed or if some condition is met.

It might be helpful, to read through http://sikuli.org/docx/region.html#exception-findfailed, since there is an interactive option, if images are not found.

When starting to develop a workflow, it might be helpful to use Region.highlight(), to visualize the found matches and use "Run in Slow Motion", to see where your script hovers and clicks.

If you want a real debugger, you have to run your scripts either in Netbeans or Eclipse (see faq 1436).

Can you help with this problem?
