Mouse jiggler

If I make a script that causes my mouse to be moved one pixel to the left, and then back one pixel to the right, will my screen saver still turn on? What I mean, is because the AutoIt script is a background process, will it still keep the comp from falling asleep?

yeh it should.

Mouse movements are not "background processes". A mouse movement without AutoIt is the same as moving it yourself.

I thought so, but I wanted to make sure Thanks.

I hate to ask this, but I couldn't find information in the guide. How would I go about doing just that? Move the pointer one pixel to the left, and then one to the right (in a loop)? Sorry if that's spam on this forum.

If you havent yet download scite and use its help file its much easier.

While 1

$pos = MouseGetPos ()

MouseMove ($pos[0], $pos[1] + 10, 0)

Sleep (10)

MouseMove ($pos[0], $pos[1], 0)

Sleep (10)

WEnd

That moves it up and down, but it should do what you want.

Thank you for the help, I'll experiment with it

This will work =) Enjoy!

Woah. Thanks for the code. I've been messing with the other one so it doesn't go flying every which way lol. I think I'll learn more of this ^^ Might be nice to know something more than Java ><
