Can I get the text of screenshot?

Please provide more information.

Hello Karl,

There is a question with the solution for this problem. https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/170686

If you have other solution, I would like to know it.

Thanks,

I want to get the text of a screenshot with spaces. This screenshots are label, textfield.

I'm looking for text on my screenshot.

I use the next line: channels.find("1459763190094.png").highlight(2), with this recognize the Label. But with this (channels.find("CH1").highlight(2) ) recognize other Label. I don't understand because have the same text.

In the case of the text show the next error: [error] Image: could not be loaded: file:/C:/Users/3319/Desktop/Ejemplos de Sikuli/EjemploScanManger.sikuli/CH1.png

In Sikuli 1.0.1 Ihad OCR searching activated when I used a find with text input, but I get the same error you have when I do it now.
I tried using Settings.OcrTextSearch = True, and Settings.OcrTextRead = True and made sure "allow OCR" is activated in "more options...".

If you just want the text and not the location, you can use channels.text().
You can also compare this to the channel number you want, you can use channels.text() == "CH1".

I use Settings.OcrTextSearch = True and Settings.OcrTextRead = True, but doesn't recognize the text 100%.

The value returned for the function text is "CHI", but my channel is "CH1"

A common problem with SikuliX's text feature: not very reliable and by far not exact.
Results depend on font and size of the text.

You either have to live with this problems or have to use another approach.

If it is a web app, you might have a look at Selenium.

thanks Karl and RaiMan.
