screenshot changed?


Recommended Posts

I am trying to do some automation; I want to set an app to screenshot the the screen and then the problem will be,

has anything changed since the last screenshot?

I think a checksum can be done to verify this, yet I don't know how to calculate the checksum...

how do I do that, or is there another way to check if the screen has changed?

You could use PixelChecksum() (check it out in the help file), but this would work better if you could restrict it to a certain area of interest. It could be very CPU intensive and slow to do the whole desktop repeatedly. Maybe with a step applied it wouldn't be so bad...
