<ul></ul><p>So the click area is just a region fully contained in one of the other areas?</p>
<p>Wouldn't it be better to just allow an offset in this case?</p>

<ul></ul><p>that's a bit hard to support as is in the needle editor. But what this 2nd needle actually is, is a different type of area - it shouldn't be matched at all, but only used for clicking, no?</p>

<ul></ul><p>Most of the time you could say it is only relevant for clicks.<br>
But I also see the use-case for "normal" needles. Take our check for the root-console as example ("cleared-console-root-20170404" e.g. <a href="https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1483793#step/consoletest_setup/38" class="external">https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1483793#step/consoletest_setup/38</a>). I've seen fails of this where the two parts of the needle get matched completely independent of each other. Check-boxes are also a pretty good example where you've multiple of them on the screen but only want to check (as in "needle-check") a specific one but you cannot cover it as one big region.</p>

<ul></ul><p>this would make designing needles even more of an art - left aside designing an editor for that</p>

<ul></ul><p>No, this is the reason I created this feature request. To reduce the "art" needed in some cases. Especially in cases where the greatest "art" can not help - e.g. (again): <a href="https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1483793#step/consoletest_setup/38" class="external">https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1483793#step/consoletest_setup/38</a><br>
Also the editor could stay like it already is with the addition of a simple checkbox: "Match areas relative to each other" or "Keep distances between match areas".</p>

<p>Maybe we should check old needles for small areas completely contained in larger areas, and then migrate these to click points.</p>

<ul><li><strong>Status</strong> changed from <i>Feedback</i> to <i>Resolved</i></li></ul><p>great to hear that. I think old needles will be eventually faded out, deleted, and recreated with click areas anyway when there is a mismatch.</p>
