expect it should and you changed something in the settings, you could try
closing Simba and deleting ``settings.xml``. Simba will create one with

Colour Finding
==============
Finding colours on the screen is quite simple. Simba offers methods like
``FindColor`` to locate colours on the screen.
These methods are usually composed out of several (but not always all)
components:
* The colour to search for.
* An area to search in, defined by *x1*, *y1*, *x2*, *y2*.
* Tolerance applied to the colour matching. With a maximum tolerance all
colours are matched.
* Spiral. A spiral defines a point where the search will start from.
This is particulary useful if you want the first result near specific
coordinates.
* AreaSize. The size the box of colours should be. Usually this is not
adjustable.
* A single point in *x*, *y* can be returned, or a set or points called
a *TPointArray*.
.. note::
Other techniques exist, which involve relative point distance from one point
to another; these are found in the :ref:`_scriptref_DTM` section.
.. note::
Although the documentation uses the ``English`` spelling of
``colour``; the code for compatibility sake uses ``color``, without the u.

passed tolerance.

Whether or not a colour is within the tolerance range is determined by the :ref:`CTS` mode.

FindColors

function FindColors(var pts: TPointArray; col, x1, y1, x2, y2): Boolean;
FindColors returns a list of all points that match the colour *col* in an area

been found.

FindColorsTolerance returns true if at least one point was found. A point is found if it is within the

Whether or not a color is within the tolerance range is determined by the CTS mode.

Colour tolerance

Simba contains several algorithms for determining if two colours are equal
given a tolerance. There are three algorithms:
