MoveMousie 1.0 - Programming For Fun Problem


Recommended Posts

Hello Guys,

I am trying to figure out a problem within my current program. Here it is below

; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
;   AutoIt Version: 3.1.1.123
;   Language:       English
;   Creator:        Neoborn
;   Email:          <neo underscore born at hotmail dot com>
;   Description     Mouse Mover
;   Version:        1.0
; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
;   PseudoCode:
;   1. Find out the size of the desktop
;   2. Move the mouse to the top left hand corner to start from.
;   3. Move mouse around the full four sides of the screen 1" from the edge
;   4. Once a full circuit has been completed it will increase in speed & move
;      in another 1" or so and complete another circuit
;   5. It will continue to do this until reaching the middle the another event
;      will occur and the program will either loop or end.
; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Opt("MouseCoordMode", 0)

;==============================================
; Variables
;==============================================
Local $DW = @DesktopWidth, $DH = @DesktopHeight, $CMP = MouseGetPos(), $MS = 100, $PM = 100, $PN = 50, $DWPN = $DW - $PN, $DHPN = $DH - $PN, $DHPM = $DH - $PM

;==============================================
;   Function Calls
;==============================================
MouseMv()

;==============================================
;   Functions
;==============================================
Func MouseMv()

    $i = 0
    While $i <= 3
        MouseMove($PN, $PN, $MS)
        MouseMove($DWPN, $PN,$MS)
        MouseMove($DWPN, $DHPN,$MS)
        MouseMove($PM, $DHPN, $MS)
        MouseMove($PM, $PM, $MS)
        exit
;~      $PN = $PN + $PN
;~      $PM = $PM + $PM
;~      $DWPN = $DWPN - $PN
;~      $DHPN = $DHPN - $PN
;~      $MS = $MS - 30
        
        $i = $i +1
    WEnd

EndFunc

;~  MsgBox(64, "Mouse Position is...", "Mouse position is " & $CMP[0] & " x " & $CMP[1])
;~ MsgBox(64,"Your desktop is...", "Desktop size is: " & $DesktopW & " X " & $DesktopH)

Please read Pseudocode for explanation of how the program works.

1. I know it exits out ; this is for testing

2. I know my loop is currently not working and I have much variables etc commented out ; this is for testing

Questions:

Please if you are willing to help me please don't just give me the answer but instead guide me a little on how to do what I need i.e. look up this in the helpfile, what you want to do is create an array etc but don't just code it for me as I will learn nought :(

1. I know there is a way to make the four variables for each position / corner on the screen and then with each loop just reduce each variable value by a specified amount ( say 50 pixels ) and then do the loop again causing the box to become small on each loop until it reaches the middle. What I don't know is how to do it or express it :bike::oops:

2. How do I make the mouse go a constant speed. I am finding that the speed of the mouse starts off good then slows as it reaches it's destination in the corner. This is not what I want, I would like it to stay one speed for one side / width then speed up by a percentage / specified value.

Thanks for any help.

Again please don't just slap some code down :) as just getting the code will not help me learn how to do it.

:( Neoborn :D

TopLeftx,y would be $TLx $TLy

TopRight as above $TRx $TRy

Bottom would be $BLx $BLy etc

So, each time round the loop you deduct the 50 pixels.

How is that different from what I have?

this is just an answer to number 2 this does a user32.dll call so the mouse gets there instally

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=21440

Can I control speed with that as getting there instantly wasn't the problem with MouseMove() it was that it moves at a given speed then starts to slow at about 3 inches from it's intended destination. Anyway to make it move at a given speed the whole way then just stop?

MouseMove ( x, y [, speed] )

From the helpfile:

[optional] the speed to move the mouse in the range 1 (fastest) to 100 (slowest). A speed of 0 will move the mouse instantly. Default speed is 10.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Maybe my engrish is fcuked. For some reason people aren't getting what I am saying.

I do not want to get the mouse there instantly. What I would like to do is have a constant speed. :(. Please try it so you know what I am talking about. You will see that the mouse starts to slow at the destination.

Thanks though :)

I would move the mouse with a speed of zero an increment the X,Y co-ords within a loop, this should get a constant speed.

Lol i understand your problem thats why i said to use that UDF because you wont have to worry about the mouses speed

But I want to worry about the speed :). If you read the pseudocode section it states that the programs mouse speed will pick up each loop / complete circuit round the screen. Yes it will increment and get faster.

From now on NO INSTANT discussions !!! :(:D You're all banned from saying the word instant!

So, instead of adding +1 to the X co-ord during the loop you add +2 or +5 or whatever...

Notice, I never used the word Instant... :D

Does it look like the way I am currently doing this is the most efficient way of doing it?

You did that in the demo script you provided??

Which part of this are you having problem with?, making the mouse spiral in with a box movement or changing the speed?

Yah this part:

;~   $PN = $PN + $PN
;~   $PM = $PM + $PM
;~   $DWPN = $DWPN - $PN
;~   $DHPN = $DHPN - $PN
;~   $MS = $MS - 30

I can change the speed because I know the speed goes from 0 - 100. Have you ever used MouseMove? Try taking the one line

Local $DW = @DesktopWidth, $DH = @DesktopHeight, $CMP = MouseGetPos(), $MS = 100, $PM = 100, $PN = 50, $DWPN = $DW - $PN, $DHPN = $DH - $PN, $DHPM = $DH - $PM

MouseMove($PN, $PN, $MS) ;starting position top left corner fifty pixels in
MouseMove($DWPN, $PN,$MS) ; top right corner fifty pixels in.

You will notice that the mouse starts to slow towards the end no?

I`ve tried to describe this here, so heres a bit of code for you to try...

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_exit")
For $Stp = 10 to 100 step 5
    For $x = 0 to 800 step $Stp
        mousemove($x,500,0)
    next
    For $x =800 to 0 step -$Stp
        mousemove($x,500,0)
    Next
next    
Func _exit()
    Exit
EndFunc

How do I go through a loop and then increase a variable by a specific value but not until it has done the first loop for example

$v = 10

first loop = 10

then at end of loop

$v = $v + $v

I sux at explaining what I am trying to do :)
