dhanraj Posted April 22, 2019 Posted April 22, 2019 I want to get the position of a text on the window based on which certain actions needs to be taken. I tried WinGetText() but it is not serving the purpose. Can someone help me out here?

Nine Posted April 22, 2019 Posted April 22, 2019 And what is the application you are trying to read text from ? If it is pixel based, you will need to read it thru an OCR apps. “They did not know it was impossible, so they did it” ― Mark Twain Spoiler Block all input without UAC Save/Retrieve Images to/from Text Monitor Management (VCP commands) Tool to search in text (au3) files Date Range Picker Virtual Desktop Manager Sudoku Game 2020 Overlapped Named Pipe IPC HotString 2.0 - Hot keys with string x64 Bitwise Operations Multi-keyboards HotKeySet Recursive Array Display Fast and simple WCD IPC Multiple Folders Selector Printer Manager GIF Animation (cached) Debug Messages Monitor UDF Screen Scraping Round Corner GUI UDF Multi-Threading Made Easy Interface Object based on Tag
BigDaddyO Posted April 22, 2019 Posted April 22, 2019 Hopefully the text you want to look for is in a specific control, as that would be rather simple using the array returned from ControlGetPos() If the text you are looking for is only part of a big edit box, or blob of text then as Nine said, you will need OCR. I posted something I did for this here: google tesseract ocr
