Change mousespeed via AutoIt (like in System Settings)

[jWalker]

Hey guys,

can i change the mouse speed via AutoIt?

I want to make a nice little GUI where all necessary settings, that have to be done while clicking through different windows UIs, can be done easily in one window.

First of all i want to change the mouse speed...

Is there any Function or DLL call or RegEdit able to do that?

i'd appreciate your help

#Include <WinAPIEx.au3>

Global $SpeedOrig = RegRead("HKCU\Control Panel\Mouse", "MouseSensitivity")
_WinAPI_SystemParametersInfo(113, 0, 1, 2) ; 1 = slowest
Sleep(2000)
_WinAPI_SystemParametersInfo(113, 0, 20, 2) ; 20 = fastest
Sleep(2000)
_WinAPI_SystemParametersInfo(113, 0, $SpeedOrig, 2)

Edit: 113 = SPI_SETMOUSESPEED = 0x0071

for this to work right?

No, only WinAPI.au3 which is included with AutoIt.

Nope sir..

i needed the extended one

#Include <WinAPIEx.au3>

See?

EDIT:

Or are these functions in both files and i only had to change the include to WinAPI?

So what - it works fine by now

No, I'm quite sure you only need WinAPI.au3. funkey wrote down WinAPIEx.au3 but you don't need that include only WinAPI.au3.

You are right..

It works with both - the normal built in and the extended version.

Funkey is maybe always using only the extended one and used it from habit...

You are right..

Thanks. Edited October 18, 2011 by guinness
