When testing found image macros:

  • ALWAYS hide the Keyboard Maestro editor – as the image in the found image action may be found too under some circumstances.
  • ALWAYS turn ON the “Display” checkmark, so you get visual confirmation an image has been found.
  • If the image is NOT found ALWAYS play with the fuzz slider.
  • It's generally a good idea to initially test on the main monitor in the front window.

With Move and Click at the found image actions it's usually a good idea to set them to Just Move (not click) in the testing phase.

NOTE – you can change the relative to item via its pop-up menu to one of seventeen different criteria.

Just as it says it does – it's pretty unambiguous. For more information see the wiki:

It says window title. Most (but not all) windows on the Mac have a title bar with a title.

If you don't have this macro then download and install it, so you can determine what windows Keyboard Maestro can see and what the index order is.
