@ perry
I think with comment #2 I understood, what he wants to do.
--- WIN-L is the standard key short cut to lock the machine, then the
login screen comes up
--- if you have a Sikuli script running, when the screen gets locked,
the script goes on running. But it will fail in the moment, you issue a
find operation, since the screen does not contain the image, you are
searching.
--- It is not possible, to operate on the login screen from the script
running behind the curtain. click() and type() work, but do not have any
effect. trying to capture a region with capture() seems to abort the
IDE.
--- So one has to find another technique to get the machine to unlock,
that can be triggered from a Sikuli script, that is aware of the fact,
that the screen has got locked.
