Customize settings

This topic describes how to fine-tune automatic scrolling and OCR settings for a codeless script or a selected step. This helps enable unique object identification.

Overview

You can customize settings at the script level or at the level of a specific step. Script settings affect the whole script. Step settings override the script settings, and apply only when running the specific step.

Keep the following details in mind:

  • Scroll settings take effect only when running the script, while text recognition settings affect inspection as well.
  • Script settings do not affect automatic scrolling in Verify and If steps. By default, Verify and If steps do not scroll the application to locate the object. This ensures that the application remains in the same state at the end of the step.

    If necessary, you can override this behavior using the step settings.

Customize text recognition settings

You can configure the recognition method and the languages to recognize.

  1. Open the settings:

    • To open the script settings, click the Script settings button .
    • To open a step's settings, select a step in the Editor, and, in the step editing pane, turn on Override text recognition settings.
  2. Select whether to use only OCR to recognize text, or also application info.

    For details, see Combine OCR with application info.

  3. To add OCR languages, click the + Add Language button.

    You can delete OCR languages or drag and drop the language text boxes to change the recognition priority of different languages.

    If you change the language settings after inspecting your application, consider the following:

    • Re-inspect the application or mockup images to use the new language settings.
    • If you use different language settings for different steps added to the script using inspection, adjust the settings of each step to identify the relevant languages.
