Get pixel color from hiden image

[Madza91]

Hello, I'm not much good in this, but I made some little script for checking Online Gold Price, and reading value number from image. But, I want hide image and get just number, without showing image. How? Thank you.

script example:

EDIT: Or just what function can I use for getting color from custom pixel of some loaded image?

Bump!

You can use the $hImage variable returned from the _GDIPlus_ImageLoadFromFile() function as the $hBitmap parameter in the _GDIPlus_BitmapGetPixel() function in the example.

;This GetPixel method gets the color of a specified pixel in this bitmap.
; Returns hex color format 0xAARRGGBB
Func _GDIPlus_BitmapGetPixel($hBitmap, $iX, $iY)
    Local $tArgb, $pArgb, $aRet
    $tArgb = DllStructCreate("dword Argb")
    $pArgb = DllStructGetPtr($tArgb)
    $aRet = DllCall($ghGDIPDll, "int", "GdipBitmapGetPixel", "hwnd", $hBitmap, "int", $iX, "int", $iY, "ptr", $pArgb)
    Return Number("0x" & Hex(DllStructGetData($tArgb, "Argb"),8))
EndFunc   ;==>_GDIPlus_BitmapGetPixel
