... Surfing the net my eye fell on a device called "Divoom". It reminded me of a little toy I liked to play when I went to kindergarten (more than 55 years ago... ), it was called "Chiodini colorati". So I made this little script to emulate it, ...maybe some kids will have fun playing with it. The attached zip file contains the script and also some "pixel art" files ready to be loaded. P.S. Thanks to @KaFu for it's _WinSetClientSize() function and to @InunoTaishou for it's CaptureWindow() function (references are in the script) #include <WinAPISysWin.au3> #include <File.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <GDIPlus.au3> #cs ----------------------------------------- "Chiodini colorati" (colored thumb tacks) a little toy for the kids 16x16 pixel art sheet Programmed by Gianni Addiego - Italy December 2021 #ce ----------------------------------------- _Chiodini() Func _Chiodini() Local $aColors[16] = [0xffffff, 0xFF0000, 0xFF00FF, 0xFFC0CB, 0x964B00, 0xCD853F, 0xFF6600, 0xFFCC00, _ 0xFFFF00, 0xCCFF00, 0x00FF00, 0x228B22, 0x0000FF, 0x00FFFF, 0x7F7F7F, 0x000000] Local $iColor = $aColors[0], $sFileName, $aAzioni, $bOkToSave Local $aColori, $aChiodini, $GUIGetMsg, $hShowActiveColor Local $hGui = GUICreate("Chiodini colorati") $aColori = _GuiControlPanel("Button", 1, 16, 50, 20, 0, 0, 5, 0, 0, 1, True, "Colors") For $i = 1 To UBound($aColori) - 1 GUICtrlSetBkColor($aColori[$i], $aColors[$i - 1]) Next $aChiodini = _GuiControlPanel("Label", 16, 16, 20, 20, ($aColori[0])[11], 0, 3, 3, 1, 1, True, "") ; Local $aBackColors[UBound($aChiodini)] For $i = 1 To UBound($aChiodini) - 1 GUICtrlSetBkColor($aChiodini[$i], $iColor) $aBackColors[$i] = $iColor Next $iColor = $aColors[1] $aAzioni = _GuiControlPanel("Button", 4, 1, 80, 50, ($aColori[0])[11] + 0, ($aChiodini[0])[12], 0, 0, 5, 1, True, "") GUICtrlSetData($aAzioni[1], "Clear with color") GUICtrlSetData($aAzioni[2], "Load txt File") GUICtrlSetData($aAzioni[3], "Save txt File") GUICtrlSetData($aAzioni[4], "Save JPG") $hShowActiveColor = _GuiControlPanel('Label', 1, 1, 45, 30, 8, ($aColori[0])[12], 0, 0, 0, 0, True, "Active") GUICtrlSetBkColor($hShowActiveColor[1], $iColor) _WinSetClientSize($hGui, ($aChiodini[0])[11] + ($aColori[0])[11], ($aChiodini[0])[12] + ($aAzioni[0])[12]) ; GUISetState() ; --------- ; Main loop ; --------- While True $GUIGetMsg = GUIGetMsg() ; -------------------------------------------- ; scan all buttons to check if one was pressed ; -------------------------------------------- For $i = 1 To UBound($aColori) - 1 If $GUIGetMsg = $aColori[$i] Then $iColor = $aColors[$i - 1] GUICtrlSetBkColor($hShowActiveColor[1], $iColor) ContinueLoop 2 EndIf Next For $i = 1 To UBound($aChiodini) - 1 If $GUIGetMsg = $aChiodini[$i] Then GUICtrlSetBkColor($aChiodini[$i], $iColor) $aBackColors[$i] = $iColor ContinueLoop 2 EndIf Next Switch $GUIGetMsg Case $aAzioni[1] ; ----- Clear with color For $i = 1 To UBound($aChiodini) - 1 GUICtrlSetBkColor($aChiodini[$i], $iColor) $aBackColors[$i] = $iColor Next Case $aAzioni[2] ; ----- File Load $sFileName = FileOpenDialog("File to load", @ScriptDir, "Text files (*.txt)") If FileExists($sFileName) Then _FileReadToArray($sFileName, $aBackColors, $FRTA_NOCOUNT) For $i = 1 To UBound($aBackColors) - 1 GUICtrlSetBkColor($aChiodini[$i], $aBackColors[$i]) Next Else MsgBox(64, "Info", "File not found") EndIf Case $aAzioni[3] ; ----- File Save $sFileName = FileSaveDialog("File to save", @ScriptDir, "Text files (*.txt)") $bOkToSave = True If FileExists($sFileName) Then $bOkToSave = 6 = MsgBox(4 + 48, "warning", "File already exists, do you want overwrite it?")
