Bitmap comparison fails!!

[sunrays123]

Hi, I want to compare two bitmaps and using Picture.Compare method for the same but the result says the two images are not identical while the images look same with a minute pixel difference.

Can anyone suggest how to resolve this problem?

Attached is the bitmaps images.

Your images are not 100% equal. 

You can play with such settings as Pixel and Color Tolerance >>>

And about factors affecting image comparison >>>

Make sure ClearType is the same for recording and playback  (a real problem if the playback machine is a different machine than the one you recorded on).

(Note: Image comparison should be a last resort because there are too many things that can go wrong)

How to set ClearType on Windows 7:

• Right-click in desktop
• Personalize
• In bottom/Left, Display
• In Top/Left, Adjust ClearType text

On Windows 10:

• Right-click in desktop
• Personalize
• In Top/Left, Find a Setting Box”, type literally, “Adjust ClearType”, but no quotes.

If you are VM'ng, the "Font Smoothing" on the "Experience" tab shown below in attached rdp.png  is what turns on "ClearType".
