Extract text from within an image
Posted: Fri Mar 27, 2015 4:10 am
Hello
Is it possible to extract text from within an image using Ranorex?
I know HP's UFT tool has an image method called "GetVisibleText" which allows this. In the attached screenshot I am able to extract "JHT101" and "Puhoi South Bound" from the image.
The app is a Java Web Start desktop application using Swing objects - object spy cannot individually recognise each image, only highlighting the entire frame surrounding the images, so I need image-based recognition - but crucially, also need to extract text from the image as the images are all the same apart from the text.
Does Ranorex have the equivalent? It's the only blocker to us using Ranorex at present.
thanks!
