Color Under Mouse -- Reborn [02/03/2014 D]

Recommended Posts

Years back JamesBrooks posted this thread: ColourUnderMouse.  I was interested in it because I was looking for a way to get started in AutoIt and so I latched onto this script.  Believe it or not after all this time I still find ways to modify the script!  Something about it intrigues me.  Here is the latest version.

Changelog:

[02/03/2014] -- New feature to display the checksum of the zoom rectangle surrounding the mouse!  Also, many optimizations to speed the script up considerably.  The zoom window is no longer a separate window.

Edit B: Now the checksum isn't calculated with every mouse move.  Press F4 or hold down shift plus an arrow key to get the checksum.

Edit C:  The checksum wasn't accurate when using shift + arrow keys.

Edit D: OOPS.  I get so excited I release way too early.

[02/01/2014] -- Now you have to hold down shift to activate the zoom feature.  Also, while holding down shift the arrow keys will move the mouse one pixel at a time.  This is to allow for picking out an exact pixel.  Try it out!

[01/06/2014] -- I finally got around to integrating UEZ's >zoom window code from 2011!  Totally awesome!  Check it out.  Scroll the mouse wheel to zoom in and out.

[08/25/2013] -- I have once again found a way to update this script.  Now the script uses a low level mouse procedure to watch for mouse movement.  I believe this translates to a higher resolution.  Requires latest beta (3.3.9.19).  Tested on Windows7 x64.

Removed until furthur notice.

Note: credit goes to JamesBrooks for the original.  Also credit to UEZ for the Zoom Window code.  Thanks.

Great Script!

Another idea for enhancement: Output the hex RGB values in decimal for the three colours. If I want to set a custom colour in MS Word I have to input the RGB values in decimal e.g. #99CCFF needs to be 153 204 255.

Please see if the latest version does what you asked.

Edit: I realized that it wouldn't and so I corrected it.

Using BlockInput() in the While/WEnd loop is a bit annoying because the mouse becomes stumbeling.

Removed.

Perfect! This version does exactly what I need!

Hey,

im trying to make a colorpicker, zoom and screenshot script.

I figured out that GDI+ is the best way (but not the easiest) to draw rectangles on the desktop.

So i modified that great example from Malkey () to have a Zoom GUI

But i have a problem: drawn rectangles wont show up in the zoomed window.

I bet there is a window flag you have to set to get that included, but for that special case i cant find any information and im not a GDI+ expert.

Here is the Script (press and hold Ctrl to drag a rectangle)

#include <GDIPlus.au3>
#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <Misc.au3>
; Modified from http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index....=&showtopic=97126&view=findpos

$GDIdll = DllOpen("gdi32.dll")
$ZoomSizeX = 256
$ZoomSizeY = 256
$ZoomGUI = GUICreate("Zoom", $ZoomSizeX, $ZoomSizeY, 400, 200, BitOR($WS_SIZEBOX,$WS_THICKFRAME, $WS_SYSMENU, $WS_BORDER, $WS_CAPTION), $WS_EX_TOPMOST)
WinSetTrans($ZoomGUI, "", 255); I dont know why but this excludes the ZoomGUI from being drawn with StretchBlt, neat!

From davidkim's post by adding a BitBlt to the _WinAPI_StretchBlt function, a layered window is able to be captured.

Malkey thats cool, i learned quite something today :)

You use BitOR($SRCCOPY, 0x40000000) for the raster operation code with BitBlt, which is $CAPTUREBLT (which is exactly what i needed).

But the thing is: you also can use it directly with StretchBlt since it has the same $iROP parameter.

So my code works if i just replace $MERGECOPY with BitOR($SRCCOPY, $CAPTUREBLT)

But then i noticed that the zoom window is being visible again in the zoomed view, which is kind of one step further, one step back.

Then i thought it must be possible to take a bitmap of the original Desktop (without layered windows) and additionally merge in the bitmap of the layered rectangle window.

Your code was very helpful in the process of doing that ;)

Here is the script:

But this way is much more CPU intensive than simply use StretchBlt, is there another way to make it more slim?

The rectangles show up for me. WIndows 7 x64

Yeah i have the same, but it has to do with Aero. I have turned it off and therefore BitBlt will behave different. Edited by qsek
