drawing a virtual box

        $iScreenX = _IEPropertyGet($e, "screenx")
        $iScreenY = _IEPropertyGet($e, "screeny")

Next

this script goes to the field of view window and tries to draw a box by click and drag. The mouse finds the coordinates and moves to the specified position but never draws the intended box.

see attached jpg----trying to control the blue box.

how can I accomplish that??

Anyone able to tackle this problem??

i'm guessing you could use timed intervals for the mouse clicks instead all at once, Hope that helps Clipper34.

[diikee]

do you have an example??

[Clipper34]

Yup, i just made it. Open paint and it will draw a box for you. Hope that helps, Clipper34.

WinWaitActive("Paint")
Sleep(3000)
MouseClickDrag("left", 146, 232, 555, 245, 5)
Sleep(1000)
MouseClickDrag("left", 555, 245, 562, 460, 5)
Sleep(500)
MouseClickDrag("left", 562, 460, 147, 436, 5)
Sleep(1000)
MouseClickDrag("left", 149, 435, 147, 234, 5)

Clipper34,

thanks for all the help. Yes it draws the box just by dragging it once.

I was referencing the wrong TAG, ---> one level down of the proper tag.

Here's a start to this task. I got a rough "highlight" portion implemented. It's leaves trails though so can be dirty. Not a bad start though.
