How to implement İsOBject function of ACTool in Autoit?

[Facimus]

Hi,

I first found ACtool in internet for macro writing then later AUTOIT. I found AUTOIT it more flexible-useful-advanced. ACTool has a function that i could not find it in AUTOIT implemeneted.(May be it is somewhere but i am not patient enough .

What I am trying to do is to write a function which compares pixel color values of a square (or rectengular) area on the screen with the values defined in the script and returns TRUE or FALSE (Like it is imlemented in ACtool).

This functionality is implemented in ACtool as follows:

// Define the Pixel and color values of an area as object

Object SomeObject // Test at coords 1387, 855

182=0,0|255=1,0|255=2,0|66=3,0|49=4,0|214=5,0|255=6,0|255=7,0|

198=0,1|255=1,1|140=2,1|33=3,1|41=4,1|41=5,1|214=6,1|255=7,1|

End Object

//Check object at given screen coordinates

isOBject SomeObject at 1387, 855

// Code... if object is present

Else

// Code... if object is not there

End

Can you help me to implement the above functionality in AUTOIT? (Script samles appriciated)

Thank You.

Facimus,

Welcome to the AutoIt forum.

Two possible ways to do what you want:

- 1. Use an array to hold the colours of the pixels. Then use PixelGetColor in a loop to read the current colours - if they match, the object you are looking for is there.

- 2. Use PixelCheckSum on the area when it contains the object you want and store the result. Then use PixelCheckSum on the area again - if you get the same value, the object you are looking for is there.

See which one is easier for you.

P.S. No script samples - I am not patient enough.

or, if you know what color you are looking for and the only time that color appears is for your condition, you could do a pixelsearch in your area for that color until found.
