Is there way in sikuli to wait for an element until its visible ? ? ?

If you want to determine whether image A or image B exists at that moment
imagelist = [imageA, imageB]
mm = findAny(imagelist)
for m in mm:
    print m.getIndex()

https://sikulix-2014.readthedocs.io/en/latest/region.html#findmorethanoneimage

If you want to check in sequence at that moment
if exists(imageA, 0):
    print "imageA is found"
elif exists(imageB, 0):
    print "imageB is found"

If you want to check continuously for 3600 seconds
t = 3600
while t > 0:
if exists(imageA, 0):
    print "imageA is found"
elif exists(imageB, 0):
    print "imageB is found"
wait(10)
t = t - 10

Can you please write it in java? Am using sikuli api in eclipse, using
java as a programming language

I'm not using Java.
Please read javadoc.
https://raiman.github.io/SikuliX1/javadocs/org/sikuli/script/Region.html#findAny(java.lang.Object...)

Thanks for the reply, but it did not solve my problem. The script should dynamically wait for a text, as soon as the text visible on the screen, the control should change to if or else if, that's my concern. If I use the above code first it waits for 3600 seconds and checking the else if condition.

if set zero to second parameter of "exists", "exists" return without wait.
#1 example "If you want to check in sequence at that moment"
#1 example "If you want to check continuously for 3600 seconds"

Thanks for the reply, I like to give you a clear picture.

In my application, the text changes dynamically on the screen. the text I need to capture is Success and failure. If the application works, success text will appear on the screen/app, if the application crashed, failure text will appear on the screen/app. The challenge here am facing is I need to wait for the (Success/Failure) text to capture and write the steps in the log. The challenge here is I'm not sure about the exact time for the text to appear on the screen/app. Either Success or failure text will appear on the screen so I used the below code using the If condition.

if(screen.exists("statusCompleted.png",3600)!=null){
System.out.println("project created successful");
}

else if(screen.exists("failed.png",3600)!=null){
System.out.println("project created was unsuccessful");
}

The issue here I faced is if the application succeeds, the Sikuli is waiting until the (success )text is visible & entered into the if condition and I can print the System.out.println("project created successfully"); but if the application crashed the control remains in the If condition and waiting for 3600 seconds and the control not moving to else if part. I don't need to be a wait if the text is not present on the screen.

I need a solution to break this barrier. my concern is as soon as the image is not present in if condition, the control should change to else condition

Boolean success = null;
for (int n=0; n < 3600; n++) {
  if (screen.exists("failed.png", 0)) {success = false; break}
  if (screen.exists("statusCompleted.png", 0)) {success = true; break};
  wait(1.0);

if (success != null) {
  //either success or failed
} else {
  // neither image appeared after > 3600 seconds
}

Hi Railman,

Thanks for the reply and solution. I will implement the above solution get
back here if there is any hurdle in the implementation.
