auto-paint program helpp!

laffo16 · November 26, 2006

hi hi, i was thinking about making a program which would read a picture from paint brush, reading each pixel with pixelgetcolor, and then open a new pad and proceed to draw the image pixel by pixel as fast as it could. I just thought it would be cool to show my friends, and maybe later have all the pixel color/cords for a specific pic exported to a save file, so i could email it to a friend and they could watch the secret picture draw its self on their comp.

well i soon enough ran into a problem with paint brush, i was wondering if someone might be able to help me here, i can retrieve the pixel color as RGB / BGR Hex or Dec, but i cant figure out how i can put these figures into paints custom colors tablet screen to get the correct colour. any help / advice appreciated man.

laffo16 · November 26, 2006

seems i need a Hex or Dec to CMYK converter. hmm

laffo16 · November 26, 2006

ok, i used Dec() function on the RGB Hex x5F9442 (eg xRRGGBB) to get correct colors. 1 step closer

I like this idea, I'm not the best here but this is how I would do it.

1. Set the area of the picture for pixelgetcolor (zx, zy ;; new coord)

2. Check each pixel and save their zx, zy coords and the color into a var

3. Set a point to start the draw at

4. Copy each pixel from their coords zx, zy

it would be nice if you could post what you have so we can all take a look at it.

This is my idea of the way to check pixel, I did not test it and it only work for one row, it should. I'm not going to try that tonight so I'll see that tomorow. I wish it help you to start.

how would you be able to set pixel though is there like a function you need ?

thanks for your help tonight newb_powa', good sleep for you ^^. locomaestro do you mean as in setting the pixel color to paint with? if so i have attempted to solve that riddle in my script above.

i think now i'll try to paint all pixels of the same color in one go instead of repeated changing of colors.

Oh, it's a lot of code, could you add some comment because I don't understand the way your doing it ^^

This function will save the color and the coords of each pixel in a .ini file. Now we only need something that can draw the picture pixel by pixel ^^

I'm not sure it's fully fonctionnal and it's pretty slow because there is a lot of stuff to do. Remember, an area of "30 pixels x 30 pixels" is 900 pixels to check ^^

I will try to improve it but I put it here now so it can give you some idea of how to continue with this stuff.

Maybe I`m misunderstanding your purpose here, do you want to record the drawing as you do it?, could you not just record the mouse co-rds and clicks to draw the picture?

This is an UDF I've made, makes it possible to set the color of pixels:

It should be noted that the pixel colors is not updated after they are drawn, meaning that if any other program redraws the window(updates it) the colors are restored to the original of the window.

Otherwise if it's just to draw in paint you could just do MouseClick()..

The _PixelSetColor set's one pixels color, the _DrawCrossHair draws a crosshair of specified size(note bigger $Size means slower)

Func _PixelSetColor($XCoord, $YCoord, $Color)
    
    Local $cHandle = DLLCall("user32.dll", "int", "GetDC", "hwnd", 0)
    
    If Not IsArray($cHandle) Then Return -1
    
    DllCall("gdi32.dll", "long", "SetPixel", "long", $cHandle[0], "long", $XCoord, "long", $YCoord, "long", $Color)
    
    DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "ReleaseDC", "hwnd", 0, "hwnd", $cHandle[0])
    
EndFunc

Func _DrawCrossHair($XCoord, $YCoord, $Color, $Size)
    
    _PixelSetColor($XCoord, $YCoord, $Color)
    
    If $Size > 0 Then
        For $i = 0 To $Size
            _PixelSetColor($XCoord, $YCoord, $Color)
            _PixelSetColor($XCoord-$i, $YCoord, $Color)
            _PixelSetColor($XCoord+$i, $YCoord, $Color)
            _PixelSetColor($XCoord, $YCoord-$i, $Color)
            _PixelSetColor($XCoord, $YCoord+$i, $Color)
        Next
    EndIf
    
EndFunc
