I'm trying to specify the particular color that a pixel should be for a condition. I'm using an If / then / else, where the condition is: The pixel at: [x_coord] [y_coord] is [color]. The issue here is that while I can pick the color using the color picker and see the hex value / RGB numbers, I can't seem to specify either the RGB or Hex number for the color using a typed value or variable. I'd like to be able to refer to the color as a variable. Is this possible?
Your could possibly get the pixel color using JXA. Alternatively, you could get the XML of the action, and then modify it appropriately and use tell app "Keyboard Maestro Engine" to do script to run the script to test the condition.
Thanks Peter! I’m afraid that is beyond my level of understanding, but I think there’s some other ways I can go about this (create separate IF’s that will specify the colors). I appreciate the quick reply!
Yes, if you have a fixed set of colors, use a Switch statement to see which one to test. That should be a good solution if you only have a few colors (where “few” is dependent on your patience level).
Thanks Jimmy. The challenge here is that it’s a Citrix app portal so everything is in Java script (which I don’t know) so I have to look at a particular part of the page to see if specific things are on it like images, colors, etc. Text in HTML is not selectable, nor are the app icons setup with their own dedicated URLs. The portal URL is definitely known since I directed Safari to go to it. However, as I navigate through the pages of apps to click on, the URL remains static (ending with /# ). So, I just look to find specific colors in particular spots and this confirms whether I’m on that page as I expect or not. Then I make the mouse click on the spot I expect. It’s not perfect but I’m hoping it does the trick!
