Return problem by PixelSearch/PixelGetColor

[anonymous]

I've found a problem where I don't think the wrong coordinates are coming from the pixel color functions.

I look for a red pixel on the screen and then move the mouse there. Then I make a tooltip with the coordinates and the color code. There is a difference between the two values! That's why I opened the AutoIt Windows information window. The pixels specified in the tooltip match, but the color codes do not. The red pixel you are looking for is not under the mouse cursor. Therefore there seems to be an error when returning the PixelSearch/PixelGetColor object.

#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
AutoItSetOption ( "PixelCoordMode" ,1)
AutoItSetOption ( "MouseCoordMode" ,1)

; Find a pure red pixel in the range 0,0, 1450,770
Local $aCoord = PixelSearch(0, 0, 1450, 770, 0xFF0000)
If Not @error Then
	MouseMove($aCoord[0],$aCoord[1])
	ToolTip("X and Y are: " & $aCoord[0] & "," & $aCoord[1], 0, 0)
EndIf
Sleep(1000)

;Check result again
Local $aCoord = MouseGetPos()
$color = PixelGetColor($aCoord[0],$aCoord[1],1) 

$sString = Hex($color,6) ; Convert the hex string back to the original string.
ToolTip("X and Y are: " & $aCoord[0] & "," & $aCoord[1] & " with color: #" & $sString, $aCoord[0]+10,$aCoord[1]+10)
Sleep(500)

Please post this in the forum so we can have a discussion on it first as there are some things to discuss.
Closed for now until we have figured out what is happening.
This script helps you to debug, where you will see that the mouse pos is 1 pixel next to the found pixel

#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
AutoItSetOption("PixelCoordMode", 1)
AutoItSetOption("MouseCoordMode", 1)

; Find a pure red pixel in the range 0,0, 1450,770
Local $aCoord = PixelSearch(0, 0, 1450, 770, 0xFF0000)
If Not @error Then
	Local $color = PixelGetColor($aCoord[0], $aCoord[1], 1)
	ConsoleWrite("> X and Y are: " & $aCoord[0] & "," & $aCoord[1] & "  color:" & Hex($color, 6) & @CRLF)
	MouseMove($aCoord[0], $aCoord[1])
EndIf
Sleep(1000)

;Check result with mouse pos
Local $aCoordm = MouseGetPos()
Local $colorm = PixelGetColor($aCoordm[0], $aCoordm[1])
ConsoleWrite(">Mouse X and Y are: " & $aCoordm[0] & "," & $aCoordm[1] & "  color:" & Hex($colorm, 6) & @CRLF)

Opt("PixelCoordMode", 0)
$colorm = PixelGetColor($aCoordm[0] - 1, $aCoordm[1] - 1)
ConsoleWrite(">Mouse correction X and Y are: " & $aCoordm[0] - 1 & "," & $aCoordm[1] - 1 & "  color:" & Hex($colorm, 6) & @CRLF)
