I'm working with Photoshop SDK with Javascript, and I'm completely stuck on the color Picker behavior.
I would close the Photoshop ColorPicker if open (I use app.showColorPicker() to present it).
Is there a way to close it from script ?
I'm not sure there is a way to do this in the script or if it's even necessary. Just from testing out app.showColorPicker() it appears that the script hangs and waits for the user to either pick a color and click ok, or click cancel (both of which close the window) before continuing with script so it would close itself before evaluating the next line of code anyway.

I'm using SikulixIDE 1.1.0 to write a script playing Yugioh game (run on Windows 10 x64).
See the main screen:
I start the game manually and then run the script as below:
switchApp("Yu-Gi-Oh! PC")
click("1477213591920.png")
My expectation is that the link named "DUEL MODE" is clicked to go to the next screen. The cursor always moves to that link, but sometimes it works, sometimes does not.
I check the log and see that Sikuli has sent click command but for some reason, the game not accept it. This is the log:
[log] App.focus: [8020:Yu-Gi-Oh!]
[log] CLICK on L(687,488)#S(0)[0,0 1366x768]
I've already tried:
doubleClick instead of click
sleep a few seconds
hover and click
But all do not work, neither.
I would expect that some of the things you have tried will help but if that's not the case you will need to identify whether the button was actually triggered or not. To do that you have to capture the next screen or any part of it that uniquely identifies it. Then you will use it a loop with a predefined number of attempts and some wait time between them and click more than once if the click didn't work. So generally something like that (pseudo code):
attempts = 3
for attempt in attempts:
click(button)
if (nextScreen is available):
break
sleep(time)
I know it's been a while but I ran into a similar problem recently.
The image was found but the click didn't work.
I'm also working on Windows 10 x86_64.
The solution was simply to execute the program as administrator.
Don't know why but now it's working..
I also had to use the double click instead of simple click for some patterns.
In adition to Eugene S Answers, if you are using SikuliX, you can try to Run in Slow Motion. Also, if the image have some effects (like brightness), you can try to use Pattern inside of exists():
if exists(Pattern("DualMode.png").similar(0.6), time_in_seconds):
click(Pattern("DualMode.png").similar(0.6))
By default, the similar() value is 0.8, so if the image have some effect and for example, the color change every second, you can set a lower value between 0 and 1.
PS: Don't forget to put the pattern inside if exists and click, because if you don't put inside of click(), could throw an Image not found error message.
Im using PDFtron on a windows store app project.
I have a page with a back button and a pdf viewer where i can edit the pdfs.
When im editing a pdf i have a tool bar with options like the ones in the samples, but i have a issue when i choose a Free Text tool and start writing on the pdf, if i press the back button while the Free Text tool is active ( the cursor is bliking) the text i wrote appears in the screen on the next page i navigate to.
How can i solve this?
The TextBox in question is part of the PDFViewCtrlTools that are used to create annotations. It is shipped with the sample application and is fully open source.
The TextBox is inside a popup, positioned to align itself on top of the PDFViewCtrl in the position where you tapped.
This TextBox needs to be closed before you go back. It is quite easy to do so by calling ToolManager.CreateDefaultTool(). In general, I would recommend taking a look at the samples and see what they're doing when the user tries to navigate away from the page.
Everytime you navigate away from a page with PDFViewCtrl, the ToolManager should call CreateDefaultTool so that whatever current tool is active (in this case the FreeTextCreate tool) can close itself and clean up.
On windows 10.
I need to automate the repeated process of these steps.
1. Open up an image in GIMP. Scale it to 110%.
2. Export as somefile name(for example input001.jpg).
3. Go to http://deepdreamgenerator.com/ in a browser. click on button, browse to the exported file.
4. Wait for it to generate result, save image as result file (for example dream001.jpg).
then repeat from step 1 with the result file from step 4...but keep increasing the filename number so export it as input002.jpg...
What software would allow me to do this?
the only software i know of that * MIGHT * be able to automate that process is AutoHotKey
You would need to keep the windows which you're automating static (ie. make sure they don't move) and then write keyboard and mouse macros in autohotkey to press the buttons and do the things you want.
I tried AutoHotKey but didn't feel like learning a whole new scripting language so I found something simpler called GhostMouse.
It just has record,play,stop buttons.
after recording and closing out of program it asks if i want to save script. clicked yes gave it a name, and then edited the script file..and copied and pasted as many times as i wanted the script to run (before copying and pasting i deleted the last 3 lines which has to do with clicking the stop button which i didn't want the script to do).
You can also try Sikuli for same. It's an image comparator

I'm trying to work with UIAutomation, and here's a problem. I'm starting to record some actions with my app (like in FoneMonkey).Recording stops when I press the Record button, but how can I replay it?
Playing a script is done by either clicking the play button found below the script editor or by clicking Instruments Record button found in the upper-left of the trace window. In either case, you'll have to have set your target appropriately under the Choose Target popup.
You can also play back scripts via the command line instruments tool. See Can the UI Automation instrument be run from the command line? from more details.
is it possible to close print pop up window using selenium..
Scenario is, on clicking print icon a pop up opens with preview and on top of it MS Windows Print pop up comes.
I could able to do validation in the preview window but unable to close the window because the presence of MS Windows print. SO this window always present in open state while executing other cases, i mean my cases are running but its blocking the view, almost half screen.
So i want to close the MS Windows Print pop-up and the i can close the preview window by selenium because it has 'Close' link
Computer Says No.
from the selenium cor faq :
...Currently there is not much that can be done about IE modal
dialogs.
I have a messy workaround right now that involves using AutoIT (http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/) to just press alt + f4, I wrote a simple script, compiled it, and called it from my C# code, that I'm running on Selenium RC. I'm looking for a better way now since this is only a workaround, a quick fix allowing me to run it until I can write it in a cleaner way.
Code for AutoIT:
; Script Start
WinClose("Window Name")
C# Code
Process.Start("WindowClose.exe");
