RecognitionRejection Property

Applies to TestComplete 12.60, last modified on September 17, 2018
The Optical Character Recognition feature provided by the OCR plugin is deprecated. It was removed from TestComplete in version 12.60 and is no longer available for later versions.
Instead, TestComplete version 12.60 introduces the new Optical Character Recognition engine featuring Google Cloud Vision API. To learn more, see Optical Character Recognition.
If you need to use the legacy feature, please contact our Customer Care team.

Description

The OCROptions.RecognitionRejection property lets you specify the threshold used to decide if the recognition of a character fails or not. To learn more about the character recognition threshold, see Optical Character Recognition. The value set in this property takes effect only if the OCROptions.RecognitionRejectionAuto property is False.

Declaration

OCROptionsObj.RecognitionRejection

Read-Write Property Real
OCROptionsObj An expression, variable or parameter that specifies a reference to an OCROptions object

Applies To

The property is applied to the following object:

OCROptions

Property Value

A real value from 0.0 to 1.0 that denotes the character recognition threshold.

Example

The following example sets the custom character recognition threshold value to 0.5 and recognizes characters written in Windows Notepad by using the specified recognition threshold. After that, it posts the recognized characters to the test log.

JavaScript, JScript

function OCROptionsSample()

  // Captures an image of the Notepad window
  Rect = Window.Picture();
  Log.Picture(Rect, "Region with the text to be recognized");

  // Creates an OCR object
  OCRObj = OCR.CreateObject(Rect);
  // Creates an OCRoptions object

  // Specifies that the custom character recognition threshold will be used
  OCROptions.RecognitionRejectionAuto = false;
  // Sets the custom character recognition threshold value
  OCROptions.RecognitionRejection = 0.5;
  // Recognizes the text and posts it to the test log

  Log.Message("Recognized characters:", OCRObj.GetText(OCROptions));
