Setting a count down in seconds for an if statement


Recommended Posts

I want to set a timer on an action in scite. Here's what I've come up with so far:

local $t = 0
While 1
ToolTip($t,0,0)
Sleep(1000)
$t= $t+1
$a = Pixelgetcolor(123,123)
If $t = 30 then
  ExitLoop
Elseif $a = 0xFFFFFF then
Mouseclick("Left",123,123,1)
ExitLoop
EndIf
WEnd

If the pixelgetcolor doesnt get to color 0xffffff at pixel location 123,123 in 30 seconds then I want to exit the loop. I intentionally left the pixel location 123,123 not equal to 0xFFFFFF and the tooltip stays at 0 and after a second the script exits. Help.

Get Scite to add a popup when you use a 3rd party UDF -> http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/scite/docs/SciTE4AutoIt3/user-calltip-manager.html

The help file says Returns decimal value of pixel's color and you are looking for HEX + the script works fine as far as the 30 seconds and counts up,

This might work a bit better and allows you to check the location for the color more often without overburdening your CPU.

Global $t = TimerInit()
While TimerDiff($t) < 30000
    ToolTip(Int(TimerDiff($t) / 1000), 0, 0)
    Sleep(100)
    $a = PixelGetColor(123, 123)
    If $a = 0xFFFFFF Then
        MouseClick("Left", 123, 123, 1)
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
WEnd

fixed code: that did not need to be fixed, as per BrewManNH

Global $t = TimerInit()
While TimerDiff($t) < 30000
ToolTip(Int(TimerDiff($t) / 1000), 0, 0)
Sleep(100)
$a = PixelGetColor(123, 123)
If Hex($a, 6) = 0xFFFFFF Then
     MouseClick("Left", 123, 123, 1)
     ExitLoop
EndIf
WEnd

Nitekram, you can directly compare a hex value with a decimal value. There's no need to change it to a hex just to compare it to another hex value. If you had taken the time to run my code you would have seen that.

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.

I am sorry, YES - I did NOT run your code, as I was not on a computer that could run the code at the time.

But that still seems strange to me - why state in the help file that it returns a decimal in BOLD if it did not matter - just my 2 cents on that.

As I have worked with strings and the string was the number "1", and if I did a comparison on it to see if the value was a 1 - it would not work, unless I change the variable to a Number().

Sorry, about the hijack on my rant!

EDIT changed Int() to Number()

I can't address why they felt the need to highlight the word decimal, that's something you can ask Guiness about.

Ok, so I tested your code and it appears that Hex and Decimal for this function does matter...

for testing - i have changed the time to 5 seconds and the color to white - also put a msgbox popup, as otherwise it was closing the script (happend to match to scites close window - lol)

Global $t = TimerInit()
While TimerDiff($t) < 5000
ToolTip(Int(TimerDiff($t) / 1000), 0, 0)
Sleep(100)
$a = PixelGetColor(123, 123)
;ConsoleWrite($a & @CRLF)
If $a = 0x000000 Then
     ;MouseClick("Left", 123, 123, 1)
MsgBox('','','match')
     ExitLoop
EndIf
WEnd

Edit - had to change second snippet

Global $t = TimerInit()
While TimerDiff($t) < 5000
ToolTip(Int(TimerDiff($t) / 1000), 0, 0)
Sleep(100)
$a = PixelGetColor(123, 123)
;ConsoleWrite($a & @CRLF)
If Hex($a) = 0x000000 Then
     ;MouseClick("Left", 123, 123, 1)
MsgBox('','','match')
     ExitLoop
EndIf
WEnd
