Saving Coords in Variable

[K3STROS]

How would i go about saving a mouse position into a variable, atm i have this but im really not sure if its the proper way to do it

Im still very new to this

 

expandcollapse popup

Global $xyLocation = MouseGetPos()

$Start_Exit_GUI = GUICreate("EXAMPLE", 228, 194, 398, 222) 
GUISetBkColor(0x0000FF)

$Loc_Button = GUICtrlCreateButton("GET LOCATION", 0, 0, 227, 89, $WS_GROUP) 
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 28, 400, 0, "Absolute Zero")

$Exit_Button = GUICtrlCreateButton("EXIT", 0, 96, 227, 97, $WS_GROUP)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 28, 400, 0, "Absolute Zero")

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

        Case $Loc_Botton 
            LocButton()

        Case $Exit_Button 
            Terminate()

    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func LocButton()

    MsgBox(0, "NOTICE", "Click on the Location you want")

        MouseClick($xyLocation[0],$xyLocation[1]
        
    MsgBox(0, "LOCATION","Location has been set")

EndFunc 

Func Terminate()
    Exit 1
EndFunc

 

 

I want $xyLocation to hold whatever x-y Coordinates from where the user clicks AFTER the MsgBox() is gone

 

Thanks in advance for any help

MouseGetPos

When first line execute your script store mouse coords in $xyLocation variable. I dont understand your question

K3STROS,

You do not have any of the includes you need to define your GUI variables.

This "Case $Loc_Botton" is a spelling error.

All of which you would have seen if you ran the script from SciTe using F5.

You already have a MouseGetPos, just move it to wherever you want it

I think I understand WHAT he wanted

And you need "track" Mouse Left Click instead of use a function that clicks on determined coord

Dont miss Opt MouseCoordMode in help file:

Sets the way coords are used in the mouse functions, either absolute coords or coords relative to the current active window:

MouseCoordMode
0 = relative coords to the active window
1 = (default) absolute screen coordinates
2 = relative coords to the client area of the active window

#include <Misc.au3>

#cs

If are this you want then you need call MouseGetPos each time

#ce

Global $xyLocation

_GetMouseCoords()

Func _GetMouseCoords()

MsgBox(0, "NOTICE", "Click on the Location you want")

; 01 = Left Click
While _IsPressed("01") = False

Sleep(20)

WEnd

$xyLocation = MouseGetPos()

MsgBox(0, "LOCATION","Location has been set" & @CRLF & " X: " & $xyLocation[0] & " - Y: " & $xyLocation[1] & @CRLF)



EndFunc;_GetMouseCoords
