JPEG RELOAD

[echrom]

Hello I was wondering if any one would be kind to help me

I am helping my friends raise money for DOE and they have

made a photo-booth we use 2 screens ( beeing split from 1 computer)

So I had an idea to make a autoit program

to show a .JPEG file, and to have the picture change In the autoit program

by changing the picture from the folder

(for example autoit reads folder/picture.jpeg so I want be able to delete the picture.jpeg

and paste a new picture and rename It to picture.jpeg and then auto It reload the picture automatically every few seconds or when the picture changes)

MY PROBLEM IS

I need autoit to reload the picture every few seconds can some one help please

my script Is

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

#include <StaticConstants.au3>

#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

#AutoIt3Wrapper_run_debug_mode=Y

#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=C:\Documents and Settings\Ivor Biggun\My Documents\Form1.kxf

$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 903, 644, 115, 59)

$Pic1 = GUICtrlCreatePic("C:\Documents and Settings\Ivor Biggun\My Documents\My Pictures\filsm\llun.jpg", 16, 8, 865, 625, BitOR($SS_NOTIFY,$WS_GROUP,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS))

GuiCtrlSetGraphic ($pic1, $GUI_GR_REFRESH)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

While 1

$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()

Switch $nMsg

Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

Exit

EndSwitch

WEnd

Dim $path = "c:\Pics"
Global $aPics = _FileListToArray($path, "*.gif", 1)
If @error Then Exit

Dim $count = 1

$hGUI = GUICreate("Relaod Image Example", 300, 200)

$pic = GUICtrlCreatePic($path & "\" & $aPics[1], 10, 10, 280, 180)

GUISetState()

AdlibEnable("_ReloadImg", 1000)

Do
Until GUIGetMsg() = -3

Func _ReloadImg()
    $count += 1
    If $count > $aPics[0] Then $count = 1
    GUICtrlSetImage($pic, $path & "\" & $aPics[$count])
EndFunc

It should reload the pic. In your first post you specified a file name; I assumed that you will be permanent changing the picture in that folder keeping the same name for it, the code was desined to do that.

If you have many more files there and you need to change the pic (different files) then you have to specify it muttley

hey thanks but for some reason im having problems every time i change the picture in the directory (the same as specifed "with same name") it dosent change

if you close the program then reopen it it changed but the pointof the program is to leave it where it is and it will reload picture

SORRY FOR BEEING A NOOB im basicle a beginner at this
