[Bug 1087315] Re: Exists behavior: pattern matching score differs between IDE and actual run

 

That's interesting, but not understandable, because internally, the only
difference between find() and exists(), is that with exists() the
FindFailed exception is catched internally and turned into a true or
false respectively.

I will come back on that after Dec 18th (vacation ;-).

Title:
  Exists behavior: pattern matching score differs between IDE and actual
  run

Status in Sikuli:
  New

Bug description:
  I have the following situation: I'm trying to see if one variant of an
  image exists, and if it doesn't, then I continue to the next variant.

  I'm using the IDE to determine the match parameters; the threshold for
  my value to appear in the matches is 0.58; below that, it will give me
  false positives. As the color does not need to match perfectly, I'm
  currently matching at 0.75. However, when I use the exists() method,
  it will return me a _false positive_, but the match is high; 0.77.
  This is incorrect and inconsistent with the find() method, which would
  have ignored this piece.

  The image i'm trying to match is an orange button, with white text; on
  the page, it will match a piece of a band of solid gray, the same
  size, but it has none of the details that the source image exhibits.

  Is this a known issue? And if so, apart from different pattern match
  criteria, can I do to avoid having this discrepancy?

  BTW: still on W7/64 with r930. Vision algorithm is at its default
  settings, haven't changed anything there. Can send the images by email
  on request, but I'd rather not share on a public place.
