Power Automate Desktop OCR actions issue

Posted on by 30

I wonder how robust the OCR engine is, why some text can be successfully detected using [Extract text with OCR] action, but failed to be detected using [Move mouse to text on screen] action?

Below, [OcrText] retrieved from [Extract text with OCR] action does detect many "LV" texts, but the [Move mouse to text on screen] action fails when tried to move to "LV" (and the word "Lv" with lower case 'v' also fails)

Does these two actions use different OCR principle?I've set their engine to be the same (Chinese(Traditional))

(I've retreated to OCR action from Image Recognition actions, which seems to be unstable, but now finding that OCR is also not reliable at some extent?)

Any comment and experience would be appreciated.
