Screen Capture

[jruelan]

hello, good day to everyone, I used Paul Campbell's Auto3Lib Screen Capture function heres the script:

$Handle=WinGetHandle("Untitled - Notepad")

Sleep(500)

_ScreenCap_CaptureWnd ("screenshot.jpg",$Handle)

Sleep(500)

I get a clipped picture, Why is that so? should i use a bigger sleep value? tnx anyone

You don't need any sleep at all.

i still get a clipped picture, only three fourths of the window is being captured,

uhm, i used the script inside a loop for about 5 times, each with different filenames of course... maybe the speed of the loop is making the picture clipped???

Make sure you are gettin the correct handle of the window.

Edit: It works fine for me

i think i am getting the correct handle because some of the screenshots are correct then the next are already clipped, then correct screenshots again, the results are arbitrary...

what's the #include?

Can you post your full script, capturing windows would be sweet for my quadratics program.

It's in Auto3Lib by PaulIA, search around the forum, about your quadratics program, didn't know what it does, and had error and had to exit it. Next time i run it it says it has expired(if you are selling this make sure donate money to jon). and uninstall had problem because the directory was pointed to C:, a way to fix this is while you doing the install, use the variable(file location) and use FileWrite() to write a batch file, which isn't limited to C and works great.

#include <A3LScreenCap.au3>

and the function is _ScreenCap_Capture
