Check if Visual Content is Exists

[beastridge]

Utilizing the action, "Check if Visual Content Exists"... is there any way to use in conjunction with a select action so that i can select any content that is found when ran? I checking for a specific logo and need to remove the logo when it is found. Thanks in advance.

You can use the "Check if Visual Content Exists" action in conjunction with a Select Action to automate the process of selecting and removing specific content (like a logo) if it's found.

@JeanetteHopkins: Have you tried it out? How exactly did you do that?
The online help also says that you can delete the selected objects manually. However, this is not true because the objects are not selected and therefore cannot be deleted.

It would be desirable if this action were not only available as a check, but also for selection.

Hi,

The thing is, that's computer vision. Meaning that PitStop "looks" at the document and can say: "Yes, it's there, I can see it". But it's not looking at objects individually.

Selecting an object? What does that mean if the subject of interest is part of an image? Say a logo display on a store front? What are you selecting?

I am not saying that the request doesn't make sense, but maybe it should be addressed in a different way. Can you develop on the kind of objects, you would like to detect AND select?

Hi Loic,

Thanks for the information, it's clearer now. I have only ever used the action on vector objects that I couldn't get hold of with the normal selection actions.

Now I understand that you can also use it to query image sections. This opens up completely different possibilities.
Then the wording in the online help is a bit unfortunate, as it talks about _selected_ images.

Noted. I will have a look and see how we can formulate this better.
