Hey @Nirmala,

welcome to the eggplant world.
Here are the options:

  1. define the search rectangle for each command via the option: searchrectangle:[100,100,1800,1000]
  2. Screenpart which is a handler/feature that can be used together with option one.
    Click text:"State",searchrectangle:screenpart("LeftHalf")
    make sure to have copied the function screenpart into your script.
  3. using the global property the searchrectangle. It will change the searchrectangle for ALL consecutive text searches. [top left x , top left y, bottom right x, bottom right y]

set the searchrectangle to remotescreenrectangle() +[0,100,0,-200] # the search rectangle starts at 100 pixels from the top and ends 200 pixel before the screen ends at the bottom.

  1. you can also use 2 screenshots within the searchrectangle
    click text:" My Name" , searchrectangle: ["Imag1","Folder/Image2"]

Let me know in case you have further questions.

Cheers,
Karsten
