Public bug reported:

Environment:
Windows 7
Java 1.7.0_51 64-bit
SikuliX 1.1.0 released on 2015-10-06
Installed with all options (1.1 2 3)

This is more of an annoyance than an issue, but when trying to open my
program, I need to make use of find("image.png") without an explicit
region.  The documentation says that it is using the default screen
object.  It seems like any call to find("image.png"), or
wait("image.png",FOREVER), or exists("image.png") on this default screen
region creates a ".png" screenshot file as soon as a match is found.
After I acquire a region using the Region(App("my-program").window()) ,
then I can call reg.find("image.png") and no more ".png" files are
created. These files are of the form "1446059987072.png", and they start
to pile up in the same folder where the script.py is located.  Overall,
the script itself has no issues performing the functions and runs to
completion without errors.  Is there a workaround or way to stop these
.png files from being created?

Sample script:
	# Shortcut to open the program
	type("h", Key.CTRL + Key.ALT)
			
        # Wait until the menu bar appears
        # When menu bar is found, a png file is created
        # which is of a screenshot of the default screen
	while not exists("..\\imgs\\menu_bar.png"):
		sleep(1)
