Xandy Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 I did it by scanning each letter pixel information. Remove all the non letter pixel information from letter surfaces. Make a mask of each letter that specifies the pixel locations to check within the letter surface. Some times you don't need a mask b/c your background has some consistency. Idk. I also used a pixel match count per letter to validate comparison. Whatcha trying to do?

Ps iam a noob I understood absolutely nothing please tell me it again in a more noobish way I am making it as a school project with no programing language specification I thought there would a normal way to do it so please if you can describe it more easily and thank you Edited April 23, 2014 by marawan
marawan Posted April 24, 2014 Author Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) ?? Please any one i need it by today Edited April 24, 2014 by marawan
Xandy Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 I use the term 'scan' to mean read the pixel information from the screen or program surface. The first step of scan would just be cropping the pixel data letters you intend on being able to read. Maybe printscreen, paint.net, crop some letters. I use the term 'surface' in this case as a general purpose application window pixel area. Surfaces are not limited to bitmaps, but I just think of them as bmp pixel data I'd start by cropping out all the letter, number pixel data you want to be able to compare against.

Xandy Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 ?? Please any one i need it by today I wouldn't want to try and write it for you. I'd require the pixel data to feel comfortable with that. I don't know what to tell you. How much did you spend on the school? Will your grades suffer? Where would you like to be in 5 years? Will you still want to work on this project tomorrow?

marawan Posted April 24, 2014 Author Posted April 24, 2014 I was looking for a script that I will read and try to understand or something but it appears to be a very hard to do right now by this small experience I have so thank you for your effort If there is any thing easier I will really appreciate it
Palestinian Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 Do you want this script as fast as you wanted that game script you asked for in a previous topic? or faster? I believe JohnOne is almost done writting it for you
marawan Posted April 24, 2014 Author Posted April 24, 2014 No for the school project I made something else but I want this for me if every time I post a topic some one will open it and remind me with this Just forget it. ..easy

ModemJunki Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 Just adding the finishing touches. I'm testing and I keep getting an error with hex "486f772061626f7574206e6f3f" ... ? JohnOne and JayHawkfl 2 Always carry a towel.
Sori Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 Instead of trolling you, like everyone else. I'll ask directly. What is the window that you are trying to get the text from? If it's a standard window, you should be able to pull the information out. If you're talking about a gaming interface... first the forums aren't the right place to ask for that type of advice, and secondly, you would have to create a program that is capable of actually reading each character on the screen. This would be called OCR or Optical Character Recognition software. Using the Autoit Window Info tool that comes with Autoit might help you get some information about the window that you need to look at. You will also receive much more help if you start a project, and try to do it yourself. Then post what you're having an issue with. If you want someone to code something for you. We would need a lot more information than just, "read text" Good luck. Xandy 1 If you need help with your stuff, feel free to get me on my Skype. I often get bored and enjoy helping with projects.
Xandy Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) Never heard of OCR thank you. I started looking for OCR programs and found this Tesseract (it's a Wikipedia link). I'm not entirely sure I would figure it out for this purpose, but it did look very promising, free (I think), and open source. You can find Tesseract on Google Code. Just google 'tesseract ocr'.
