Re: [Question #181855]: Can we run sikuli script in background

 

Question #181855 on Sikuli changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/181855

    Status: Open => Answered

RaiMan proposed the following answer:
Since a Sikuli script uses the real monitor, mouse and keyboard, a
system running a script must be left alone with no interference by the
user or any other automation tool, as long as these actions are not
synchronized by some means.

So a Sikuli script always runs in "foreground" and in this sense, there
cannot be a background option.

If you have a script, that just observes the screen and mouse movement
and does not interact using click() or type(), the script in fact runs
in the "background".

Hope I understood your question ;-)
