A weird trick for GetTextinRect to definitely work is to loop until text is received. .
You may wish to build a timeout limit inside the loop.
Please try:

Code: Select all

GetTextInit
GetTextReset
Let>Result=
Let>Len=0
Label>GetText
GetTextInRect>500,550,1070,600,Result
If>Result=,GetText
MDL>Result

In the Sample folder, you will find a sample script named Text Capture.scp.
Also look up Marcus' Capturing Screen Text.
