Keylonta Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I wrote a script to highlight onscreen text (3 x left mouse click) and read it using the shortcut key for my text to speech program (Ctrl + F9).The script works perfect when I use x/y coordinates. It highlights the text at that coordinate and reads it.MouseClick("left" 500, 500, 3, 0)Send("^{F9}",0)But when I set it with default x/y coordinates so that I can highlight and read the text at the current cursor position, it doesn't highlight the text.MouseClick("left" INTDEFAULT, INTDEFAULT, 3, 0)Send("^{F9}",0)I wrote the script to assign to a remote control button using Intelliremote software which supports AutoItX scripts. So I need to use the current cursor position so I can highlight and read any text onscreen.Why does the script not work with the INTDEFAULT values?

Keylonta Posted September 12, 2015 Author Share Posted September 12, 2015 (edited) Solved this with the following script:MouseClick("left" INTDEFAULT, INTDEFAULT, 1, 0)MouseClick("left" INTDEFAULT, INTDEFAULT, 1, 0)MouseClick("left" INTDEFAULT, INTDEFAULT, 1, 0)Send("^{F9}",0) Edited September 12, 2015 by Keylonta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrewManNH Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 What is INTDEFAULT? I've never seen that before. Are you sure you don't mean the keyword "Default"? 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.
