BruceCopperField Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 (edited) I've got some coordinate from IE which is relative to browser's client area. However, it seems that _ScreenCapture_CaptureWnd() is expecting window-relative coordinate. How can I convert my client area relative coord to the one _ScreenCapture_CaptureWnd() needed?

Moderators Melba23 Posted December 21, 2009 Moderators Share Posted December 21, 2009 BruceCopperField,Have you looked through the Help file?If you search for "client screen", you will find _WinAPI_ClientToScreen and its complement _WinAPI_ClientToScreen. Read the relevant pages carefully, it is not quite as straightforward to use as you might think.

BruceCopperField Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 Yes, I've tried that. But it is converting from client area relative to SCREEN relative - not active window relative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 (edited) Posting 2 3! threads on very similar (identical?) topics is not very clever. I have answered you question in the other thread. To convert it to the "active window relative" you just need the position of the active window:$nScreenX = 55 $nScreenY = 234 $aPos = WinGetPos ("[active]") $nActiveX = $nScreenX - $aPos[0] $nActiveY = $nScreenY - $aPos[1] MsgBox (0, "Result", @TAB & "||" & @TAB & "Screen" & @TAB & "||" & @TAB & "Active window" & @CRLF & "X" & @TAB & "||" & @TAB & $nScreenX & @TAB & "||" & @TAB & $nActiveX & @CRLF & _ "Y" & @TAB & "||" & @TAB & $nScreenY & @TAB & "||" & @TAB & $nActiveY) Edited December 21, 2009 by Mat AutoIt Project Listing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Melba23 Posted December 21, 2009 Moderators Share Posted December 21, 2009 BruceCopperField,Sorry, misunderstood the _ScreenCapture function you were try to use.Which leads on to to: if you only want to capture part of the client area, why use _ScreenCapture_CaptureWnd, which is designed for a whole window? Why not use _ScreenCapture_Capture which takes screen coords - which you can get via the functions I mentioned above?M23 Any of my own code posted anywhere on the forum is available for use by others without any restriction of any kind Open spoiler to see my UDFs: Spoiler ArrayMultiColSort ---- Sort arrays on multiple columnsChooseFileFolder ---- Single and multiple selections from specified path treeview listingDate_Time_Convert -- Easily convert date/time formats, including the language usedExtMsgBox --------- A highly customisable replacement for MsgBoxGUIExtender -------- Extend and retract multiple sections within a GUIGUIFrame ---------- Subdivide GUIs into many adjustable framesGUIListViewEx ------- Insert, delete, move, drag, sort, edit and colour ListView itemsGUITreeViewEx ------ Check/clear parent and child checkboxes in a TreeViewMarquee ----------- Scrolling tickertape GUIsNoFocusLines ------- Remove the dotted focus lines from buttons, sliders, radios and checkboxesNotify ------------- Small notifications on the edge of the displayScrollbars ----------Automatically sized scrollbars with a single commandStringSize ---------- Automatically size controls to fit textToast -------------- Small GUIs which pop out of the notification area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeTheMex Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 A way I converted my known coordinates in window mode to client mode was open AutoIt Window Info (AIWI), change coordinate options to window, click on desired window and move mouse somewhere on window, use alt tab to select AIWI, check mouse position and write down somewhere, change coordinate options to client, alt tab to active window then alt tab back, check second mouse position. Then use the 2 positions to find out difference in the two and apply difference to code. Crude, but for a simple fix this should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdmiralAlkex Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 It is called Au3Info, not AIWI .Some of my scripts: ShiftER, Codec-Control, Resolution switcher for HTC ShiftSome of my UDFs: SDL UDF, SetDefaultDllDirectories, Converting GDI+ Bitmap/Image to SDL Surface Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
