else if

Asked by Llewelyn Mc Carthy

Hi,

I tried now for some time to build a python else if structure like this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if exists(img01):
  ...
elif exists(img02):
  ...
elif exists(img03):
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is common python syntax but it does not work. If I structure it like this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if exists(img01):
  ...
if exists(img02):
  ...
if exists(img03):
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not all cases are triggered when the images appear. I only want one "if" and "else ifs" if possible. Only "else" is not specific enough because I want a restraint from the existing picture. Anyone know how to build this?

That is tricky with Sikuli, since each exists() makes a find operation that lasts 3 seconds if not found.

So if you want to check "concurrently" for more than one image, you have to use observe() (rather complex) or a loop with exists(img,0) (searches only one time) which I usually prefer.

i1 = i2 = i3 = False
while True:
   if exists(img1, 0): i1 = True
   if exists(img2, 0): i2 = True
   if exists(img3, 0): i3 = True
   if i1 or i2 or i3: break
   wait(1)
# now you can make your decisions based on i1, i2 and i3

I will use observe() because img2 are actually three images

Can you help with this problem?
