liquidfluid 0 Posted August 1, 2010 (edited) I have been using autoit (AutoIt v3 on Windows 7, x64) for about 15 minutes so probably I am doing some really silly error, but anyways: $info = GUIGetCursorInfo() ; this function should return an array right? $x = $info[0] $y = $info[1] $str = StringFormat("x = %d\ny = %d\n", $x, $y) MsgBox ( 0, "Mouse Position", $str) ; print cursor x,y I get this error: C:\Users\Pietro\Projects\autoit\try.au3 (3) : ==> Subscript used with non-Array variable.: $x = $info[0] $x = $info^ ERROR >Exit code: 1 Time: 0.232 How is this possible? EDIT: This works: $info = MouseGetPos() $x = $info[0] $y = $info[1] $str = StringFormat("x = %d\ny = %d\n", $x, $y) MsgBox ( 0, "Mouse Position", $str) still, I don't get why the other one doesn't Edited August 1, 2010 by liquidfluid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melba23 3,458 Posted August 1, 2010 liquidfluid, Welcome to the AutoIt forum. How is this possible?A couple of possible reasons from the Help file for GUIGetCursorInfo to fail: - "The mouse cursor position is successful only on an window created by a GUICreate" - "When no winhandle it will be successful if the GUI Windows is active" So I would strongly suggest that you add your GUI handle as the parameter - the handle is the value returned by GUICreate. If you still do not get an aray returned, please post your code so we can delve deeper! M23 P.S. When you post code please use Code tags. Put [autoit ] before and [/autoit ] after your posted code (but omit the trailing space - it is only there so the tags display here). Or press the blue button just under the BOLD toolbar button. Any of my own code posted anywhere on the forum is available for use by others without any restriction of any kind Open spoiler to see my UDFs: Spoiler ArrayMultiColSort ---- Sort arrays on multiple columnsChooseFileFolder ---- Single and multiple selections from specified path treeview listingDate_Time_Convert -- Easily convert date/time formats, including the language usedExtMsgBox --------- A highly customisable replacement for MsgBoxGUIExtender -------- Extend and retract multiple sections within a GUIGUIFrame ---------- Subdivide GUIs into many adjustable framesGUIListViewEx ------- Insert, delete, move, drag, sort, edit and colour ListView itemsGUITreeViewEx ------ Check/clear parent and child checkboxes in a TreeViewMarquee ----------- Scrolling tickertape GUIsNoFocusLines ------- Remove the dotted focus lines from buttons, sliders, radios and checkboxesNotify ------------- Small notifications on the edge of the displayScrollbars ----------Automatically sized scrollbars with a single commandStringSize ---------- Automatically size controls to fit textToast -------------- Small GUIs which pop out of the notification area Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
