(Resolved) Bug?: Relative Coordinate Issue

Gigus,

I created a macro that attempts to use relative coordinates; either I'm very rusty at this or it may not be working properly. The code I'm using is:

Code:

 begin
     Color.Limit area of interest to window("World Golf Tour - Internet Explorer", "Yes")
     Color.Limit area of interest to coordinates("615", "705", "60", "15")
     when  Color.At coordinate is within (RGB range)("130", "202", "99", "15", "1128", "919")
          begin
               Mouse.Click("Left")
          end
 end

The actual (relative) coordinates I want to use are 667/714...but I'm having to use the absolute coordinates (1128/919). I did some other testing like:

Code:

  
    Window.Calculate relative coordinates("World Golf Tour - Google Chrome", "Yes", "1128", "919", "varForX", "varForY")
     Mouse.Move to coordinate("667", "714")  // I did use color.limit area of interest; just like the script above
     Macro.Pause("1000")
     Mouse.Move to coordinate relative to window("{varForX}" , "{varForY}" , "World Golf Tour - Google Chrome", "Yes")

The calculation results for the relative coordinates work fine; I get 667/714 just as I did when I manually calculated them. But whether using "color" or "mouse.move" they both go to absolute coordinates.
*NOTE: "Mouse.Move to coordinate relative to window" works properly though

So, "color.limit area of interest" may not be working properly (or like I said, maybe I'm just rusty). Can you look into this for us please?

The Color.Limit area of interest.... commands does not affect relative coordinates.

The limit-instructions only exists to offer a way to improve performance, since captured screen dumps will only be analysed within that limited area.

Relative-commands are always relative to a window, it does not know about limited areas of interests.
I can see the reason for confusion though, perhaps the behavior should be changed.
