    I believe you meant to use picture compare method and not the region compare.

     

     

    Edit:

    Also you need to specify the mouse pointer exclusion when you use the .Picture() method.

    See documentation here.

     

     

    Try this (again, lol):

     

    var wnd = Aliases.Application.MainWindow;
var obj = wnd.Studio.ScrollViewer.ScrollViewer

//take first picture specifying mouse is not to be captured
var pic1 = obj.Picture(0, 0, -1, -1, false);

//perform object drag
wnd.Pulses.Drag(104, 220, 385, 13);

//take second picture specifying mouse is not to be captured
var pic2 = obj.Picture(0, 0, -1, -1, false);
pic1.Compare(pic2);

Changing the .Picture() method did the trick! Thank you for your help.
