PixelCheckSum Question

[gottygolly]

Just curious on how you guys determine the region pixelchecksum is looking in.
I've been trying to display the region (Basically a box of where it's looking) for ease of use but can't figure out a good way of doing it, I checked through the forums and can't really find anything.

My bad if it's something stupid
Thanks in advance

Maybe this can help you a bit :

I can get the coords for where to set the PixelCheckSum region, I grab the position and size of the window and do a little calculation

$Win = "Chrome"
$Win_Pos = WinGetPos($Win)
$Pixel_Check = PixelChecksum($Win_Pos[0]+($Win_Pos[2]/8),$Win_Pos[1]+($Win_Pos[3]/1.4),$Win_Pos[0]+($Win_Pos[2]/1.9),$Win_Pos[1]+($Win_Pos[3]/1.2))

If the window changes position or size at any point (Eg. I drag it by accident) the script still checks in the correct position of the window.
However, sometimes it doesn't update the change properly and starts grabbing from a different region, I'd like to be able to see the region where the script is currently looking so I'm aware of any changes. Know of anyways to display the region PixelCheckSum is set to?

Thank you for the help

Seeing you are using chrome - why not just use this:

Draw a rectangle on the screen so you see if you calculate proper area.
