region

Asked by felipe

Hello, I have a simple question. In my work I use Sikuli to automate some tasks, however, the activity and based on an application that uses a lot of data processing PC. Over time the Sikuli start to decrease your speed. As the task only needs a certain region of the application, I would like to know if you enclose an area of the screen to the Sikuli working on it? So I which improved the performance of both I think.

It's a good idea to restrict your Sikuli operations to as small of an area as reasonably possible so Sikuli does not waste processing in areas of no interest.
Several methods exist for this...

Here, we programmatically define a region using absolute screen coordinates.

myReg= Region(100,100,500,600)
myReg.highlight(2)

... then go on with looking for an image match or whatever you need to do.
So, yes, restrict the screen area Sikuli has to work on.
