Different screen resolutions: Button is not recognized

Asked by Jeff Sant

I created a script to click on a browser button, made on 1366x768 resolution but it doesn't works on 1440x900 resolution though i got the new button image from that resolution but nothing is working.

When i make a new script on the pc with smaller resolution 1440x900 and run it there it works fine, but when i bring it to bigger resolution pc 1366x768 and add more code then it does not work again on the smaller resolution 1440x900.

is there any way i can fix it, because my friend is using 1440x900 and i am using 1366x768 and i don't want to send him code instead a sikuli executable file.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Normally this has nothing to do with resolution, since inside a browser window the images are rendered based on the pixel-by-pixel image information and should be the same.

Problems might come up, if it is a resolution-aware Flash app (rendering the same "image" different on different resolutions). In this case, there is no other chance to solve this, then having different images for both resolutions.

I have a similar problem, not a flash app. What was the solution?

@ danny
problem: resolution aware rendering in browsers/browser windows on different machines/browsers
solution: take separate screenshots for every browser/machine

If you think, that is not the problem, post a new question explaining your situation and environment.
