Save image to file from clipboard

[MrCreatoR]

Hi all.

I was wondering, is it possible to save the image that i put to ClipBoard (by “Print Screen” for example) to file?

I mean, if i press the button “Print Screen” on my keyboard, and then use some “magical” function ( ) that will “take” this captured image and save it to file, is it possible?

Thanks.

Go here:

and make the dllcall a hotkey to Print Screen

=)

--Edit--

After you download the dll, here is the code + the hotkey I made for you:

HotKeySet("{PrintScreen}", "Print")

While 1
Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func Print()
; Capture full screen
; Fist parameter - filename, last - jpeg quality. 
DllCall("captdll.dll", "int", "CaptureScreen", "str", "dump_full.jpg", "int", 85)
; Capture given region
; Fist parameter - filename, next four: left, top, width, height. Last one - jpeg quality.
; Set quality to any negative number to capture into BMP
DllCall("captdll.dll", "int", "CaptureRegion", "str", "dump_partial.bmp", "int", 100, "int", 100, "int", 300, "int", 200, "int", -1)
EndFunc

It's great Dll, thaks ...

But i need somthing else, what i need, is to save the image to file without capturing anything, the capturing will do other program (Opera Browser), i need just “take” the image that was captured, and save it to file.

Thanks for trying to help.

Haven't tested it myself, but you could check this out...

$var = ClipGet()

FileWrite("C:\Yourfile.ini", $var & @CRLF)

And what we get here?

Thanks, but this is not it, as far as i understood, this only monitoring for ClipBoard changes.

Hmm... at that time I felt it was a good idea to post that link, but now I fail to see why.

Time for bed I guess.

If I recall right you get a handle to the image. You have to use that handle to get access to the image in memory. There are API calls to do this. Take a look at the TrayMenuEx udf. Hopefully it will give you some starting points.

Happy scripting.

Download and install Irfanview then look at the help file for command line options. You will find optiond in there that will do what you want and all you have to do is script them. You can find it at www.irfanview.com .

Thanks for advice, but i need it using AutoIt only (as much as it possible), and the command for IrfanView i know - /clippaste
