[Bug 1388994] [NEW] [request] Region. highlight() should accept values < 1

 

Public bug reported:

Hi, 
I suspect a bug in calling region function

having this simple test:
Region(App("myapp").window(0)).highlight(1)
is good and highlights for 1 second

Region(App("myapp").window(0)).highlight(0.5)
tries to highlight and ends with error:

[error] java.lang.IllegalArgumentException (
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: timeout value is negative )

also tested with general region in the middle of the script
also tested with decimals like 0.3

Help shows this on example using 2 seconds and tells we can use decimal
number. I guess noone ever wanted highlight for shorter time that 1
second so far.

My purpose is, I want make initial Cut of the application to smaller logical integrities so that the searches then take shorter time.
In order I see visually it was successful, I would  welcome even 0.2 highlight because every seciton then blinks briefly - it creates a nice 1 second "all good my lord"  effect :-) in case of e.g. 5 sections alltogether.

kindly suggesting it may be a bug

Best regards,
