Limit an area to be between 2 points?

[olo]

hey all,

Just looking to see if anyone can help me?

I have 2 points say (x,y) and (x1,y1).

Now (x,y) is the top left point of a rectangle(for example)

and (x1,y1) is the bottom right point of the rectangle.

How would I say this in an if statement?

EG.

If $my_data is not between these 2 points ---> exit.

else ...do_whatever...

Endif

What is the name of the application you wish to interact with? There may be a much better way to interact with the controls than Pixel search. Pixel search is one of the most unreliable methods to use. You are much better to use things such as controlclick and controlsend.

I just had two sets of data in a pdf that I want to make a range. and i want all my data to be within that range

This is it:

;; This script is guaranteed to exit

Global $x1=0, $y1=0, $x2=320, $y2=320
Global $MYDATA[2] = [234,345]

If $MYDATA[0] >= $x1 and $MYDATA[0] <= $x2 then
  If $MYDATA[1] >=$y1 and $MYDATA[1] <= $y2 then
    _DoSomething()
      else
        Exit
  EndIf
    else
   Exit
EndIf

Func _DoSomething()
msgbox(64, '', 'The point is inside')
EndFunc

Great example!

Great example!

"Great" - I don't think so.

One If statement with three And's would be a better example, IMO.

Four nested If statements would have been worse.

Alright, so here we go:

;; This script is guaranteed to exit

Global $x1=0, $y1=0, $x2=320, $y2=320
Global $MYDATA[2] = [345,345]

If $MYDATA[0] >= $x1 and $MYDATA[0] <= $x2 and $MYDATA[1] >=$y1 and $MYDATA[1] <= $y2 then
    _DoSomething()
      else
        Exit
  EndIf

Func _DoSomething()
msgbox(64, '', 'The point is inside')
EndFunc

Undoubtedly, this one is better, since it saves me nesting.

And you don't actually provide the example. You just complain about other folks who give praise. >_<

Thanks man!

You are welcome indeed. However, I suggest you to use the example in Post-7 of this thread. It's much better than the first one (which you have quoted).
