Feature request - A visual indication to have found nothing

Opened this issue · 2 comments

Have a small visual notification when the tool finds no matches. And even add a little message (Try lower confidence value). Because currently there is no indication if is an overlay bug or other.

There is a subtle indication right now that the search was not successful. If the Scan button changes from 'Scanning...' back to 'Scan' instead of 'Hide', then that means the search algorithm didn't find anything. I agree that this is not the best solution but it's something you could rely on in the current version.

As for the recommendations. Suggesting to change confidence value may not be the best idea. There are multiple different parameters that affect the search and adjusting only one of them may not yield the best results. I'm trying to make the default parameters as good as possible, so people could use this tool out of the box.

I think it would be better to add a troubleshooting section to the README to help people figure out how to adjust the search, instead of putting everything in the UI.

I'm posting some idea here that doesn't deserve to create another topic. For the "set scanner window" option configuration, If it was possible to increase the visual time or to be able to activate and deactivate it automatically. or have a box, next to it, to tick to activate.

And an option to consider the object that is already activated in the totem. Because when you hide the tools it resets the choices. This issus can be closed.
