Elements may be grouped together to form Group elements. This allows the program to consider the grouped elements as one entity for which it has already formulated a single hypothesis (consisting of hypotheses for each constituent element). The program examines the combinations of hypotheses for the constituent elements of the group and selects only the best ones (their number is set by the user). The Search Elements tree as a whole is in essence a Group element itself, the best hypothesis for which contains the activity matching results. A Group element allows you to create a single search constraint for all constituent elements. The search area for a particular constituent element will be the intersection of the search area specified for the constituent element and the search area specified for the entire group.
The intersection of the search area of a constituent element and the search area of the group may be empty. If the intersection is empty, the constituent element will not be detected. Therefore, we recommend either only specifying simple relations for Group elements, e.g. “Above: PageRect.Top + PageRect.Height/2;” (search for the element in the top half of the image), or avoid specifying any at all.
A formulated Group hypothesis has no additional type-specific properties.
