MouseOnEvent UDF!

[ken82m]

ahh sorry missed that, maybe I can work something out comparing timestamps and coords.

I just found this:

Only windows that have the CS_DBLCLKS style can receive WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK messages, which the system generates whenever the user presses, releases, and again presses the left mouse button within the system's double-click time limit.

Assuming that that style exists under another name in au3 that would get it working in autoit GUI's

The problem is not the window style. The problem, as I tried to make clear, is that those messages are simply not supported by the low level mouse hook. No matter what your window receives, the hook will not get those messages. Further more, the mouse hook is system wide and has little to do with your specific window. This UDF can optionally filter those messages for you with the $hTargetWnd parameter.

Not very advanced but worked for my purposes

It's setup for this one right now http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=81761&st=0&p=635352&hl=xevent&fromsearch=1&#entry635352

I'll update for this udf when I have a few minutes but you get the idea.

-Kenny

Global $DblClickSpeed = RegRead("HKCU\Control Panel\Mouse", "DoubleClickSpeed")
Global $Last[3]

;Add to main handler
If $xevent = "Left Up" Then
If $Last[0] = "" Then
  $Last[0] = $ptx
  $Last[1] = $pty
  $Last[2] = $time
ElseIf $Last[0] = $ptx AND $Last[1] = $pty AND ($time - $Last[2]) <= $DblClickSpeed Then
  $xevent = "Double Left Click"
  Dim $Last[3]
EndIf
ElseIf $xevent <> "Left Down" Then
  Dim $Last[3]
EndIf

I am having a major issue that I can't figure out what is happening. I only have a couple of mouse events defined (Right click, wheel down, wheel scroll up and down). After some things occur in my script (appears to be the addition/deletion of some dynamic controls), the entire hook goes down. This is extremely frustrating as I just found this out and my program is near the end. Any thoughts on what might be causing this?

Thanks,

Bob

I have just found this awesome udf, though I have customized it, removing all the unnecessary stuff I don't need and simplifying its usage...

Thanks!

I've found this to be a great solution for a special cross-application entry sequence that I've wanted to automate for quite a while. I got everything to work on about my third try ... except that there's one nagging problem:

After my script has done its thing and exited, the desktop is in a pecular state where left mouse clicks are ignored ... until I perform a right mouse click in some unused area of the screen. Then the left and right buttons resume working normally.

Ironically, the only function my script uses is the one for the right mouse button:

_MouseSetOnEvent($MOUSE_SECONDARYUP_EVENT, "MouseSecondaryUpEvent")

In my Terminate() function, I use the required _MouseSetOnEvent($MOUSE_SECONDARYUP_EVENT) to restore normal use of the Right Mouse Button.

I've tried adding all kinds of combinations of MouseClick(L/R) ... Up/Down ... etc to my termination sequence to try to free-up the blocked state, but nothing has helped. Again, my script does work correctly ... except that desktop is left in this half-way state.

I will greatly appreciate any ideas on what the problem might be. Thanks for any help.

The example of use in the first post still has an error by trying to include the wrong udf.

Update!

v1.9 [22.07.2012]

* Script breaking version!

* Dropped AutoIt 3.3.0.0 support.

* Instead of $sParam1 and $sParam2, now $vParam used as last parameter.

* Event function ($sFuncName) now called with $iEvent as first parameter, and $vParam as second (both optional).

* Now $iBlockDefProc is set to -1 by default (event function can define whether to block event process or not, simply by returning 1 or 0).

* Fixed not working $MOUSE_PRIMARYDBLCLK_EVENT and $MOUSE_SECONDARYDBLCLK_EVENT,

now handled manually because windows does not always receive these events (depending on CS_DBLCLKS style).

(not tested properly, so these events will have "experimental" label for now).

* Fixed error related to "Subscript used with non-Array variable", caused when window with handle of $hTargetWnd parameter is not found (window closed).

* Examples updated.

Nice script MrCreatoR

Want to test it, but cant download it.

Error message "Sorry, you don't have permission for that!"

Amazing thanx

Each time I test your examples or include your functions in my scripts, I got a crash when I do a mouse click (crash happens on mouse up)

crash : AutoIT3.exe ended.rc:-1073741819

Have a look here :

Can not reproduce.

Can you show me specific example that will crash the script?

And where do you click, is it happens with any window, or specific one?

[kiboost]

Happens with your examples (# Main.au3, etc). It happens when I click anywhere (left, right etc), on any windows etc.

It happens only with this last version, or with older version too?

Perhaps its somehow related to x64...

[kiboost]

Just discovered your udf, so never tested previous versions. I'm on w7 pro x64 yes.

You can download them from the first post.

It will help me to reveal the reason of the problem.

Strange, very strange.

I just tested on virtual machine with Win 7 Pro x64, all examples working fine, no crash.

I have two small problems when using this UDF and i am hoping i am able to get it fixed.

I am using the lastest UDF and my machine is Windows 7 Proffesional 64 bit.

First question.

The following code doesn't seam to work for me, i double-click the side buttons and nothing happens.

#include 'MouseOnEvent.au3'
_MouseSetOnEvent($MOUSE_XBUTTONDBLCLK_EVENT, 'A')

while 1
sleep(250)
WEnd

Func A()
ConsoleWrite("A")
EndFunc

Secondtly is there any way for $MOUSE_XBUTTONDOWN_EVENT to tell the differenec between which side mouse button has been pressed?

05 Windows 2000/XP: X1 mouse button

06 Windows 2000/XP: X2 mouse button

#include 'MouseOnEvent.au3'
_MouseSetOnEvent($MOUSE_XBUTTONDOWN_EVENT, 'A')

while 1
sleep(250)
WEnd

Func A()
ConsoleWrite("A")
EndFunc
