LordTakahiro Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening all, I am currently working on a script to scroll down a smartsheets page for a client of mine, but they do not like how choppy MouseWheel down looks. Is there a way to make this look smoother? I was thinking I could do MouseDown("Middle"), but I do not have the coordinates of this page to move the mouse down to make this look smoother. Below is the code that I currently have working with MouseWheel. expandcollapse popup#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> HotKeySet("{F4}", "exitProg") ; Press F4 to exit the program HotKeySet("{F5}", "startStop") ; Press F5 to start and stop the program (Program is still running, stops the program after it's current scroll loop) $on = True ; Variable for the startstop function $numScroll = 10 ; (Interchangeable) Variable for the amount of mouseWheel Down scrolls will happen in 1 loop $sleepTimer = 1000 ; (Interchangeable) Variable for the amount of miliseconds the program will wait between iterations (1000 = 1 second) Func startStop() ; Start and stops the program If $On = False Then $On = True Else $On = False EndIf EndFunc Func exitProg() ; Exits the program Exit EndFunc Func scrollDown($param) ; Scrolls down the current active window $param times For $i = $param To 1 Step -1 MouseWheel("down", 1) sleep(1000) Next EndFunc Func windowActivate() ; Activates the Google Chrome window and gives scroll down $numScroll param $handle = WinGetHandle("[CLASS:Chrome_WidgetWin_1]") If @error Then MsgBox(4096, "Error", "Could not find the correct window") Else WinActivate($handle) scrollDown($numScroll) EndIf EndFunc While 1 ; Main function that while the code is on, run windowActivate then once thats done, sleep for $sleepTimer While $On = True windowActivate() sleep($sleepTimer) WEnd WEnd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 (edited) You have it pause 1 second between mouse scrolls, shorten that to see if it looks better to you. You could also look through the post linked below for more ideas.

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.

LordTakahiro Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 Yeah, I changed it to 100 and it does seem better. I'll work with it a bit more to see if they want it to be something they like. They kind of just want it to slowly scroll down their smartsheets page, so I can't have it go down too fast, but at 1 second it's too choppy for them.

LordTakahiro Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 I ended up adding/changing a few variables and changing how my scrollDown function works to this: $scrollTimer = 5000 ; (Interchangeable) Variable for the amount of miliseconds the program will scroll down the page $sleepTimer = 1000 ; (Interchangeable) Variable for the amount of miliseconds the program will wait between iterations (1000 = 1 second) $offsetY = 30 ; (Interchangeable) Variable for the offset of the Y value. Determines how quick the page will scroll (Has to be over 15) $moveTimer = 10000 ; (Interchangeable) Variable for the amount of miliseconds the program will wait for the user to move the mouse to the scrollbar Func scrollDown($param) ; Scrolls down the current active window for $param miliseconds sleep($moveTimer) $currPos = MouseGetPos() $newY = $currPos[1] + $offsetY MouseDown ( "middle" ) sleep(1000) MouseMove($currPos[0],$newY,10) sleep($param) MouseUp ("middle") sleep(1000) MouseMove($currPos[0],$currPos[1],10) EndFunc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
