Is This Available?

[Guest awmax]

I was a AutoIt 2 user and now want to generate a new script. I was wondering if this utility is available:

An AutoIt 3 script that runs in the backgound, that when the mouse stops for x number of seconds, it some how displays the mouse pointer location and pixel color without taking focus from the window. Optionally, writes the pointer location and color to a text file.

Thanks in advance!

Update: just found AU3Spy.. checking to see if this will work.

Update2: AU3Spy only works in window mode. I need something just like it that works in Full Screen mode.

Thanks!

endfunc

I hope that help to start Read the help for more

In full screen mode, you need to do something to get it to record the location of mouse, such as with a HotKey. Let's see where did I put that? Oh yeah! Look here for the code. Keep in mind, this is not tested, at least by me.

Thanks! It looks like a combination of the two will work good.

More testing todo...
