I am trying to figure out why my mouse move does not end up in the same spot as the test version

I am on the struggle bus. (Both Examples below) 

#include <IE.au3>


Local  $xWidth =  2
Local  $xHeight =  2
Local  $vOperator = '/'

Local $oIE = _IE_Example("form")

Local $oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "ExampleForm")
Local $oTextArea = _IEGetObjByName($oForm, "imageExample")


Local $iScreenX = _IEPropertyGet($oTextArea, "screenx")
Local $iScreenY = _IEPropertyGet($oTextArea, "screeny")
Local $iWidth = _IEPropertyGet($oTextArea, "width")
Local $iHeight = _IEPropertyGet($oTextArea, "height")


Local $iMousespeed = 20








MouseMove($iScreenX + $iWidth / 2, $iScreenY + $iHeight / 2, $iMousespeed) ;Test Example

;;MouseMove(Execute(($iScreenX + $iWidth) & $vOperator & $xWidth), Execute(($iScreenY + $iHeight)  & $vOperator & $xHeight), 25) ;My Example

There's no reason at all in that example to use Execute.

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.

Without execute. I am not even sure how to get it to divide.  

#include <IE.au3>


Local  $xWidth =  2
Local  $xHeight =  2
Local  $vOperator = '/'

Local $oIE = _IE_Example("form")

Local $oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "ExampleForm")
Local $oTextArea = _IEGetObjByName($oForm, "imageExample")


Local $iScreenX = _IEPropertyGet($oTextArea, "screenx")
Local $iScreenY = _IEPropertyGet($oTextArea, "screeny")
Local $iWidth = _IEPropertyGet($oTextArea, "width")
Local $iHeight = _IEPropertyGet($oTextArea, "height")


Local $iMousespeed = 20

$vTest = $iScreenX + $iWidth / 2

$vMine = $iScreenX + $iWidth & $vOperator & $xWidth

ConsoleWrite($vTest & @CR)
ConsoleWrite($vMine & @CR)


;;MouseMove($iScreenX + $iWidth / 2, $iScreenY + $iHeight / 2, $iMousespeed) ;Test Example

MouseMove($iScreenX & "+" & $iWidth & $vOperator & $xWidth,$iScreenY & "+" & $iHeight & $vOperator & $xHeight, 25) ;My Example

Even if my operator may be minus (-)? PEMDAS?

Makes no difference, you don't need to use Execute in that statement at all. Use parentheses around the part you want to divide. 

$i = $iScreenX - ($iWidth/2)
; or
$i = ($iScreenX - $iWidth) /2

The first divides the $iWidth by 2, the second divides the result of subtracting $iwidth from $iscreenx by 2. Not sure where you were going with it, but both would work and don't need execute.

I can get it to work just fine without my variable as well.  

;~ Local $vOperator = /

The problem is sometime I don't want it to be in the middle of the object. (In this case the Auto it picture)

So I might want to just add or subtract. 

Am I able to do this without execute with the variable? $vOperator = /

If you're going to use the convoluted route of using a variable for an operator instead of just doing the math in the statement, then y ou'll probably need to use Execute.

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.

      Function Equivalent of Execute()
      By noellarkin
      Local $a = 1 Local $v = Execute("$a+1") ; $v is set to 2 I've been wondering if there's something similar to Execute that would work with function names, something like:
      Func _IncrementNumber($thisnumber) Return $thisnumber + 1 EndFunc Local $Number = 10 Local $IncrementedNumber = ExecuteFunction("_IncrementNumber", $Number) ; $IncrementedNumber becomes 11 I haven't found anything similar to "ExecuteFunction" in the docs.

      RegExp Catch and Operator Question - (Moved)
      By junichironakashima
      Im creating a code that will work in this sequence:
      1. Copy the text (question) in one atea of the screen
      2. Catch the 2 strings (number)
      3. Multiply the 2 strings ( $1*$2)
      4. Click the next area to put the answer
      5. Paste the answer
       
      This is my code
       
      MouseClick($MOUSE_CLICK_LEFT, 479, 802, 3, 1) ;Clicking all of the text
      Send("^c") 
      $x = StringRegExpReplace(ClipGet(), 'What is (\d*) x (\d*) \?$', "$1*$2")
      MouseClick($MOUSE_CLICK_LEFT, 480, 844, 1, 1)
      ClipPut($x)
      Send("^v")
       
      However the output is this
      $1*$2
       
      How can I make it solve itself? Because I tried this code:
      MouseClick($MOUSE_CLICK_LEFT, 479, 802, 3, 1) ;Clicking all of the text
      Send("^c")
      MouseClick($MOUSE_CLICK_LEFT, 480, 844, 1, 1) $x = Execute(StringRegExpReplace(ClipGet(), 'What is (\d*) x (\d*) \?$', "$1*$2"))
      ClipPut($x)
      Send("^v")
      Output is just blank text

      how to activate a run file of a software
      By rkr
      Hi, I have a software which has a 'run file'-ie; when i double click on that file, the input file of the software is run by the software. I wish to double click/execute this run file using autoit. how do i achieve this. i opened the software and it shows the input file and run file in same folder, i will put my autoitscript file too in same location. how do i simulate double clicking the run file (using its file name, say - abc.run ). I entered the following lines to make software window active - it became active, dont know how to go forward
      Winactivate("program title")
      winwaitactivate("program title")
      controlclick("program title","abc.run",1000,"primary",2) ; 1000 is ctrl id

      Can values be assigned to object attributes using Assign, Execute, Eval?
      By SchneiMi
      Hello,
      following my previous question, I have moved all potentially instable object interactions into Executes. But it Looks like "="-assignments to object Attributes cannot be done with Execute, only method calls. Using an "$obj = 1" construct, it compares (Eval) instead of sets (Execute) the value.
      I have tested multiple different combinations, using Execute and Assign, but it seems not to work with object Attributes. :-(
      Gives following Output:
      The assign Action using apply (a3) Fails, while assigning it directly, without Assign() works fine.
      The execute versions compare and do not assign, in both cases. Though, the "Execute" topic in the help file says it executes, not evaluates.
      I have found a similar, old thread, which explains this behavious but does not give a solution. https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/110228-pass-object-property-as-a-variable/  
      Is there a way to assign to a com object's Attribute? Or is there anything new to this unexpected behaviour of Execute (at least compared to the help file description and Python's exec).
       
      Any help is appreciated, and thank you for all the help so far.
      Regards, Michael

      Insert Line Numbers in text with Stringregexpreplace
      By hawkair
      Hi
      I am trying to insert line numbers in to a string
      with this script
      Func _MyInc () Static Local $i = 0 $i += 1 Return $i EndFunc Exit _InsertLines() Func _InsertLines()     $String = "A" & @CRLF & "B" & @CRLF & "C" & @CRLF & "D" $NewString =  Execute("'" & StringRegExpReplace($String,"[\r\n]*",  "' & _MyInc () & '\1" ) & "'") MsgBox (0, "", $NewString) EndFunc but I get this:
      1A23B45C67D8
      I never really could master how Execute works here and I always get some working example and make substitutions.
      But this is the closest i could get...
