SkipFragmentation 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.SkipFragmentation property lets you specify whether to reject fragmentation of an onscreen object's image during character recognition. To learn more about image fragmentation and its usage during character recognition in TestComplete, see Optical Character Recognition.

Declaration

OCROptionsObj.SkipFragmentation

Read-Write Property Boolean
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

True if the image fragmentation is not used. False if the image fragmentation is used.

Example

The following example obtains an image of the Notepad window and recognizes the text without using the fragmentation. After that, it posts the recognized text to the test log.

JavaScript, JScript
Python
VBScript
DelphiScript
C++Script, C#Script

JavaScript, JScript

function OCROptionsSample()
{
  var notepad, Window, Rect, OCRObj, OCROptions;
  // Obtains the Notepad window
  notepad = Sys.Process("notepad");
  Window = notepad.Window("Notepad", "*").Window("Edit");
  // 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
  OCROptions = OCRObj.CreateOptions();

  // Specifies that the fragmentation of the image will not be used
  OCROptions.SkipFragmentation = true;
  // Recognizes the text and posts it to the test log
  Log.Message("Recognized text:", OCRObj.GetText(OCROptions));

}

Python

def OCROptionsSample():
  # Obtains the Notepad window
  notepad = Sys.Process("notepad")
  Window = notepad.Window("Notepad", "*").Window("Edit")
  # 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
  OCROptions = OCRObj.CreateOptions()
  # Specifies that the fragmentation of the image will not be used
  OCROptions.SkipFragmentation = True
  # Recognizes the text and posts it to the test log
  Log.Message("Recognized text:", OCRObj.GetText(OCROptions))

VBScript

Sub OCROptionsSample

  ' Obtains the Notepad window
  Set notepad = Sys.Process("notepad")

  ' Captures an image of the Notepad window

  ' Creates an OCR object
  Set OCRObj = OCR.CreateObject(Rect)
  ' Creates an OCROptions object
  Set OCROptions = OCRObj.CreateOptions

  ' Specifies that the fragmentation of the image will not be used
  OCROptions.SkipFragmentation = True
  ' Recognizes the text and posts it to the test log
  Call Log.Message("Recognized text:", OCRObj.GetText(OCROptions))

End Sub

DelphiScript

procedure OCROptionsSample();
var notepad, Window, Rect, OCRObj, OCROptions : OleVariant;
begin
  // Obtains the Notepad window
  notepad := Sys.Process('notepad');
  Window := notepad.Window('Notepad', '*').Window('Edit');

  // Creates an OCR object
  OCRObj := OCR.CreateObject(Rect);
  // Creates an OCROptions object
  OCROptions := OCRObj.CreateOptions;

  // Specifies that the fragmentation of the image will not be used
  OCROptions.SkipFragmentation := true;
  // Recognizes the text and posts it to the test log
  Log.Message('Recognized text:', OCRObj.GetText(OCROptions));

end;

C++Script, C#Script

function OCROptionsSample()
{
  var notepad, Window, Rect, OCRObj, OCROptions;
  // Obtains the Notepad window
  notepad = Sys["Process"]("notepad");
  Window = notepad["Window"]("Notepad", "*")["Window"]("Edit");
  // Captures an image of the Notepad window
  Rect = Window["Picture"]();

  // Creates an OCR object
  OCRObj = OCR["CreateObject"](Rect);
  // Creates an OCROptions object

  // Specifies that the fragmentation of the image will not be used
