Morthawt Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Is there any way to get details about the control that is under the mouse cursor. I am going to revive my project idea for enhancing the flexibility and ease of automation for autoit, only doing it all from scratch now that I know more compared to before. Is there any way of knowing what control either is under your mouse or knowing which one you just this second clicked? Free and easy Autoit scripting video tutorials (plus more videos always coming!)

FireFox Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Hi, Question already asked. Global $aMgp, $hWndUnder, $iIDFrom $aMgp = MouseGetPos() $hWndUnder = DllCall("user32.dll", "hwnd", "WindowFromPoint", "long", $aMgp[0], "long", $aMgp[1]) ;control handle ;~ $iIDFrom = _WinAPI_GetDlgCtrlID($hWndUnder[0]) ;if you want to control ID Then with the ctrl handle you can get its type etc. Br, FireFox.

guinness Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 (edited) WindowFromPoint should be fed a [$tag]POINT structure instead. This is how it should be done. #include <Misc.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> HotKeySet('{ESC}', '_Exit') Example() Func Example() Local $hWnd = 0, $hWnd_Previous = 0, $tGetMousePos = 0 ; Declaring variables in the loop will slow it down. While 1 $tGetMousePos = _WinAPI_GetMousePos() $hWnd = _WinAPI_WindowFromPoint($tGetMousePos) If $hWnd <> $hWnd_Previous Then $hWnd_Previous = $hWnd ConsoleWrite('Handle:' & $hWnd & ', ControlID: ' & _WinAPI_GetDlgCtrlID($hWnd) & @CRLF) TrayTip('', $hWnd, 2) EndIf Sleep(20) WEnd EndFunc ;==>Example Func _Exit() Exit MsgBox(4096, '', 'Exiting...', 1) EndFunc ;==>_Exit Edited November 22, 2012 by guinness Danp2 1 UDF List: _AdapterConnections() • _AlwaysRun() • _AppMon() • _AppMonEx() • _ArrayFilter/_ArrayReduce • _BinaryBin() • _CheckMsgBox() • _CmdLineRaw() • _ContextMenu() • _ConvertLHWebColor()/_ConvertSHWebColor() • _DesktopDimensions() • _DisplayPassword() • _DotNet_Load()/_DotNet_Unload() • _Fibonacci() • _FileCompare() • _FileCompareContents() • _FileNameByHandle() • _FilePrefix/SRE() • _FindInFile() • _GetBackgroundColor()/_SetBackgroundColor() • _GetConrolID() • _GetCtrlClass() • _GetDirectoryFormat() • _GetDriveMediaType() • _GetFilename()/_GetFilenameExt() • _GetHardwareID() • _GetIP() • _GetIP_Country() • _GetOSLanguage() • _GetSavedSource() • _GetStringSize() • _GetSystemPaths() • _GetURLImage() • _GIFImage() • _GoogleWeather() • _GUICtrlCreateGroup() • _GUICtrlListBox_CreateArray() • _GUICtrlListView_CreateArray() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveCSV() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveHTML() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveTxt() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveXML() • _GUICtrlMenu_Recent() • _GUICtrlMenu_SetItemImage() • _GUICtrlTreeView_CreateArray() • _GUIDisable() • _GUIImageList_SetIconFromHandle() • _GUIRegisterMsg() • _GUISetIcon() • _Icon_Clear()/_Icon_Set() • _IdleTime() • _InetGet() • _InetGetGUI() • _InetGetProgress() • _IPDetails() • _IsFileOlder() • _IsGUID() • _IsHex() • _IsPalindrome() • _IsRegKey() • _IsStringRegExp() • _IsSystemDrive() • _IsUPX() • _IsValidType() • _IsWebColor() • _Language() • _Log() • _MicrosoftInternetConnectivity() • _MSDNDataType() • _PathFull/GetRelative/Split() • _PathSplitEx() • _PrintFromArray() • _ProgressSetMarquee() • _ReDim() • _RockPaperScissors()/_RockPaperScissorsLizardSpock() • _ScrollingCredits • _SelfDelete() • _SelfRename() • _SelfUpdate() • _SendTo() • _ShellAll() • _ShellFile() • _ShellFolder() • _SingletonHWID() • _SingletonPID() • _Startup() • _StringCompact() • _StringIsValid() • _StringRegExpMetaCharacters() • _StringReplaceWholeWord() • _StringStripChars() • _Temperature() • _TrialPeriod() • _UKToUSDate()/_USToUKDate() • _WinAPI_Create_CTL_CODE() • _WinAPI_CreateGUID() • _WMIDateStringToDate()/_DateToWMIDateString() • Au3 script parsing • AutoIt Search • AutoIt3 Portable • AutoIt3WrapperToPragma • AutoItWinGetTitle()/AutoItWinSetTitle() • Coding • DirToHTML5 • FileInstallr • FileReadLastChars() • GeoIP database • GUI - Only Close Button • GUI Examples • GUICtrlDeleteImage() • GUICtrlGetBkColor() • GUICtrlGetStyle() • GUIEvents • GUIGetBkColor() • Int_Parse() & Int_TryParse() • IsISBN() • LockFile() • Mapping CtrlIDs • OOP in AutoIt • ParseHeadersToSciTE() • PasswordValid • PasteBin • Posts Per Day • PreExpand • Protect Globals • Queue() • Resource Update • ResourcesEx • SciTE Jump • Settings INI • SHELLHOOK • Shunting-Yard • Signature Creator • Stack() • Stopwatch() • StringAddLF()/StringStripLF() • StringEOLToCRLF() • VSCROLL • WM_COPYDATA • More Examples...
