Region detects no motion

Asked by Ben

I want to have sikuli detect when a region stops changing. It's text that is changing and when it stops changing i'd like the script to then carry on.

I have no clue where to start and basic instructions would be much appreciated due to my lack of knowledge of the language.

Thank you I'll try this out later. As I'm very new to this program and language, what do I need to change within this code? Such as where do I insert. The region and can I just take a screenshot?

Thank you.

at

reg =

you might insert a Region shot of the region to observe.

the rest works as is.

with the wait(1) it currently would stop watching, if the region does not change it's content for at least one second.
If needed adjust this value.

Thank you! I will try it out and see how it goes. Also, if i want to loop the entire process when it reaches the last line how do i do this? As well as this i'd like it if at every line if something were to go wrong it just starts over as i need it to be running continuously.
