different resolution screen while using MouseClick command

[autoitquestion]

Hi,

Is there any way to overcome on different resolution screen while using MouseClick command?

Thanks in advance!

Noa :-)

Trying to deal with MouseClick() on different resolutions is no fun, and I'd only consider it as a last resort.

If you can use ControlClick() that would be a lot easier and more reliable. It depends on what program you're trying to interact with though.

yes- I know ControlClick, but from unknown reason it's did not work..

So..

So.... what program and control is it that you're trying to click on?

If you really just want to figure out MouseClick(), it's tricky. When program windows are resized or displayed in different resolutions the positioning of the controls doesn't always scale linearly, depending on how they're aligned. To start, you need to find out how the X & Y positioning changes, through some testing, on different resolutions. Then figure out some kind of forumula that can match those changes, as well as (hopefully) correctly anticipates the control positions on resolutions you haven't tested.

Mainly, expect some trial and error.

Hi,

Thanks for your help!

I have only 2 different resolutions for now

On one coordinates are: 811, 386, while on the 2nd are: 1098, 455

let's assume the difference is liniar.. so how to build the formnula? what I need doing now with this formula?

Thanks!

Noa :-)

What are the screen resolutions that each of those coordinates are on?

It's the relationship between the screen resolution and the control coordinates that is important.

How can I know screen resolution?

[autoitquestion]

Okay-found it..

On one coordinates are: 811, 386 and screen resolution is: 1280 by 960 pixels

On 2nd are: 1098, 455 and screen resolution is: 1920 by 1080 pixels

Thanks a lot!

[autoitquestion]

all okay now..

thanks all
