Wait Image

The Wait Image component in Robbot RPA allows your automation process to wait for a specific image to appear on the screen. This component is useful when you need to synchronize your automation with the visual elements on the screen.

Parameters​

Time Out : Specify the timeout duration in seconds. The component will wait for the specified amount of time for the image to appear on the screen before timing out. Type : Integer

Similarity : Enter the similarity ratio value to determine how closely the image on the screen should match the expected image. The default value is 0.85, indicating a similarity of 85%. Type : Single

Screeen : If you are using multiple monitors, you can select the specific monitor to search for the image. The default value is 0, which corresponds to the primary monitor. Type : Integer

Result : Returns the status of the operation, indicating whether the expected image appeared within the specified timeout duration. The component returns true if the image was found, and false if the timeout occurred before the image appeared. Type : Boolean

Usage​

To use the Wait Image component in your Robbot RPA project, follow these steps:

Drag and drop the Wait Image component to the activity adding section of the Open Image component.

Configure the component by providing the necessary inputs:

Set the timeout duration in seconds using the Time Out parameter.

Adjust the similarity ratio if needed using the Similarity parameter.

Specify the screen number if you are using multiple monitors.

Continue building your sequence or workflow by adding other components or actions that depend on the appearance of the expected image.

Execute your sequence or workflow.

The Wait Image component will wait for the specified image to appear on the screen, and the execution will continue once the image is found or the timeout occurs.

By utilizing the Robbot RPA Wait Image component, you can ensure that your automation process synchronizes with the visual elements on the screen, enabling you to perform actions based on the presence of specific images.
