BrewManNH Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 It works fine for me. What are you seeing when you run it with this (C030FF) color showing and your mouse is over the block of color? If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.

blinkybill Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 (edited) I found what the problem was.... it was to do with windows 7 settings What I did was, I downloaded a screen capture program so I could see where in fact my mouse pointer was, even though I was using AutoIT AND Autohotkey to double check my mouse curser was infact in the correct spot.... So... I took several screen shots, and noticed my mouse cursor was offset.... II was using an option under screen resolution to make my text bigger, as I have trouble seeing smaller text... and when I changed it back to default wahla... no more problems and I am getting the correct colours now. TL;dr : Windows enhance text size, made an off set with my mouse cursor Edited March 5, 2013 by blinkybill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
