Simple pixelgetcolor issue

[noobieautolearn]

This is what I have, it won't work

 

Dim $count = 0

Do

If PixelGetColor (800, 510) = 0xFF0000 Then 

MouseClick("left", 800, 510, 1)

endif

sleep(10000)

$count += 1

Until $count = 9

 

 

Am I missing something?  I want it to click on that mouse coordinate if that coordinate is 0xFF0000 or do nothing if it's not.  It runs and does not error out but even when that coordinate is that color it will not click.  I verified with Autoit v3 window info the color was correct.

Hi,

try doing this:

MsgBox(0, "", PixelGetColor(800,510))

PixelGetColor returns a decimal value, the one youre using for compare seems to be hex.

You need to use the one the line above returns.

Radiance,

AutoIt is happy with either Hex or Decimal as numeric values:

ConsoleWrite((0x0010 = 16) & @CRLF)

You get True from that compare.

Crazy, I've always had problems with it. But you're right.

Anyway, the message box should probably bring some helpful insight.

I think I figured it out but not 100 percent sure.  I think I was using the wrong color.

It would be MUCH better to try to hook directly into the control in question. Using Pixel searching is the worst way to deal with controls. What happens when you use the AutoIt info tool that is part of the AutoIt Suite? What does it report back?

I had struggles with pixelsearch and came up with this kind of a code, which works perfect!

Instead of checking if the X & Y coordinates have the colour ur looking for, this code scans an area and if the colour ur looking for is found (or not) then it will do a certain action.

Goodluck!

$pixel = PixelSearch(846, 433, 1011, 510, 0xF0F4F9, 10 )
If not @error Then

    Call( "func_12)
EndIf

What if there are many colors in the are not of which are at the exact location the OP wants?
