Image inserted and visible in the editor (see Macro - Flash Example)

Post by Massimo » Fri Jan 22, 2021 10:40 am

Hello,
I have studied the example: Macro - Flash Example
I have seen that in the editor there are integrated 3 images as reference.
How to do it?
Thanks for any suggestion

It looks like the URL in that sample no longer goes where it is expected to.

If I am understanding your question correctly, when using the Image Recognition Wizard those images in the editor are automatically generated.

yes, thanks.
With the recognition wizards, it works :D
However, it is possible to add manually an image in editor to document the FindImagePos added manually to the code?
This could be interesting to document what is the intent of the code.
Currently I have to keep a separated document to do it.

Actually you can by exploiting a feature of the recorder. Record a macro with the default and you will see it documents images of things you click on and wait for:

//Clicking on:
//SnapshotFile>...

//Activating Window:
//SnapshotFile>...

If you save the macro first and then specify either a full path, a BMP_DIR (where folder is same name as script in same location) or SCRIPT_DIR (same location as script) then you will see the images appear. The line before the SnapshotFile line MUST start with Clicking on: or Activating Window:

Note this is NOT documented and was NOT designed to be used like this - but the macro recorder produces lines like this so you could make use of it for your own needs if you want.
