sambuddy Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 Hello All, I am trying to automate the pushing of a button in an application but when i use the "window info" tool to find out some info about the button, i get nothing! Is this indicating that this isn't a button? Any suggestions on how i can achieve the pushing of this button would be greatly appreciated Thanks this is what "windows info" returns to me >>>> Window <<<< Title: Class: ThunderRT6FormDC Position: 0, 0 Size: 1024, 768 Style: 0x14800000 ExStyle: 0x00040000 Handle: 0x00030134 >>>> Control <<<< Class: Instance: ClassnameNN: Advanced (Class): ID: Text: Position: Size: ControlClick Coords: Style: ExStyle: Handle: 0x0002010A >>>> Mouse <<<< Position: 702, 706 Cursor ID: 2 Color: 0xAEBCAF >>>> StatusBar <<<< >>>> Visible Text <<<< Flat Scrollbar Flat Scrollbar Flat Scrollbar Flat Scrollbar >>>> Hidden Text <<<<

sambuddy Posted August 25, 2008 Author Posted August 25, 2008 No, it's not from a game. It's actually from a piece of software that monitors security cameras via a video capture card. The button i'm pushing takes a snapshot of the selected video input and saves it as a bitmap. The card i am using comes with an sdk and the company that supplied it were responsive........until i asked them why the demo app in the sdk didn't work, then i got silence and have heard nothing since
Richard Robertson Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 Ah, next question then is, is it a skinned GUI? If so, the button may not be a control, but just an image painted on the window.
youknowwho4eva Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 Can you get to the control using tabs? I've had to use this a lot recently because I'm automating Lotus Approach and it's buttons are the same way. Giggity
