   Hi UIPath Community,
    
    I'm currently working on a small project with incident management. What's the best or at least a more consistent way of checking this image once I save a record? The image appears for a sec or 2 once the save button is clicked and then disappears.
    
    Here's the sequence I have now:  
    
    
    Lastly, the properties set for the ‘Find Image' activity:  
    Accuracy: 0.8  
    Profile: Basic  
    WaitForReady: NONE
    
    The thing is, there are times the Find Image is inconsistent and causes my runs to fail   
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi @lpreyes00,
    
    is this a virtual environment (like Remote Desktop or Citrix) or do you have direct acces to the software?
    
    Ff the latter, maybe you could use the UI-Explorer to get a selector and then use “Find element”.
    
    If the first: I must admit, that I do not have any experience in virtual environments.
    
    Regards
    
    Richard

    Hi!
    
    I have direct access on the application. I'm accessing it via google chrome browser. Already tried the ‘find element' but I had a hard time catching it cause the image disappears.

    Hi! So I tried google inspect and got this:  
      
    should this work?

    Fine  
    welcome to uipath community  
    we can try with IMAGE EXISTS activity where choose that image and get the output with a variable of type boolean named bool_exists  
    –and in the property panel of IMAGE EXISTS set the property WAITFORREADY as COMPLETE  
    –after this we can validate the boolean variable with a IF condition like this  
    **bool_exists = True**  
    if true it will go to THEN part where we can use the CLICK activity or it will go to ELSE part where we can mention a string with MESSAGE BOX activity like “Image doesnt exists”
    
    hope this would help you  
    Cheers @lpreyes00

    @lpreyes00
    
    yes this should help defining a selector for “find element”  
    try this as a selector
    
    Mybe this will help you find the right selector.
