source code for au3info.exe

[mark76]

Hi,

Im trying to create a simlar progam to the au3info.exe program that comes with autoit.

It a gui that lets the user sample fragments of graphics from other parts of the screen.

I cant figure out how to do it.

The problem I have at the moment is as soon as I move the mouse outside the gui window of my program it cant sample things anymore. If I click it just selects the other application as an active window.

I noticed that the au3info.exe program manages to do this ok.

I'd love to see the source code so I can see how its done.

Thanks,

Mark.

I doubt seriously Larry would give you the source, as he's declined every time I've ever seen it asked.

But you may get something from this:

Search for the following examples:

Enabler

ControlClassNNFromMousePos

CtrlGetByPos

I seem to recall that what we know as au3info started off life as a clever "Script or Scrap" that was posted on these forums. I know that Larry improved on it immensely, but what you're looking for is probably available in that primordial version.

You can find more if you refine your search better but, here is what a quick, 30 second search turned up:
