WaitScreenImage

Hi All,

I am having trouble with WaitScreenImage all of a sudden.

Without any changes to anything, it is not working properly for me.

Basically, I had a line WaitScreenImage>%BMP_DIR%\filename.bmp,0.7,CCOEFF

it was working fine, then all of a sudden, it just stopped working. What happens is, If the file is actually on the screen, it will run as expected, however the I added a "messageModal>%WSI_RESULT% %WSI_TIMEOUT% WSI_TIMEDOUT%" line immediately after, the results were "-1 120 FALSE"
Not sure what -1 means.

If the file is NOT on the screen, it will go to the next line as and the results for the messagemodal added are exactly the same.

Please help shed some light on this, as I am totally confused.
I also have this line located within a SRT.

THanks!

-1 usually means the needle image file doesn't exist.

That would mean "%BMP_DIR%\filename.bmp" does not exist?

Whilst I was debugging, I thought this could have been true,

So I made another line "ExecuteFile>%BMP_DIR%\filename.bmp" and there were no errors.

update and kind of new problem: I had an error "unable to find ircv.dll" on one of my waitscreenimage lines . after pressing ABORT, I ran the exact script again, after that ALL waitscreenimage lines were NOT working properly. the variables for WSI_RESULT WSI_TIMEDOUT were ALWAYS "1" and "FALSE" as oppose to "-1 and FALSE"

I have restarted Macro Scheduler but the problem persists. I am going to restart my computer to see if things work

Hi

Sorry, I dont check this forum often. I come on only when I have problems or issues.

I have the latest build for macro scheduler.

I was unable to figure out why it was not working but to fix it, I just restart my computer and it will work as expected.
