About ScreenCapture.au3

[snowcake]

Hi

I am a new learner

 

I need ScreenCapture server's computer name and save the picture to what folder i need

I try many ways

it's not works

Thanks

 

for example

Server name : ELB12036

path : \\fs02\eng\

file name : server_name.jpg

 

 

#include <ScreenCapture.au3>

Example()

$Server @computername

$path = "\\fs02\eng\"
 
Func Example()
    ; Capture full screen
    _ScreenCapture_Capture($path & $Server & ".jpg")

EndFunc   ;==>Example

Shouldn't it be

$Server = @computername

instead of

$Server @computername

And you declared your variables below the call to the function. The variables are never being seen in the Example()

Try

$Server= @computername
$path = "\\fs02\eng\"
Example()

Func Example()
    ; Capture full screen
    _ScreenCapture_Capture($path & $Server & ".jpg")

EndFunc   ;==>Example

First, "it's not works" is not good enough, elaborate.

Second, Full path and extension of the image file

Your script isn't runable:

so try this one:

#include <ScreenCapture.au3>

Example()

$Server=@computername

$path = "\\fs02\eng\"

Func Example()
    ; Capture full screen
    ConsoleWrite('Filepath: '&$path & $Server & ".jpg"&@CRLF)
    _ScreenCapture_Capture($path & $Server & ".jpg")

EndFunc   ;==>Example

I try a new script

 

 

#include <ScreenCapture.au3>

Example()

$Server = @computername

$path = "C:\autoit-v3-setup\Examples\Ting"
msgbox(4096,'test',$path)

Func Example()
    ; Capture full screen
    ConsoleWrite('Filepath: '&$path & $Server & ".jpg"&@CRLF)
    _ScreenCapture_Capture($path & $Server & ".jpg")

EndFunc   ;==>Example

 

error again

#include <ScreenCapture.au3>

$Server = @computername
$path = "C:\autoit-v3-setup\Examples\Ting"
Example()
msgbox(4096,'test',$path)

Func Example()
    ; Capture full screen
    ConsoleWrite('Filepath: '&$path & $Server & ".jpg"&@CRLF)
    _ScreenCapture_Capture($path & $Server & ".jpg")
EndFunc   ;==>Example

You are using $Server and $Path variables into Exmaple function. And you are trying to call Example function before define the variables. lol

Dear Loken 

thanks so much

 

no error msg

 

but

 

No Picture

I think maybe the reason is the windows os embedded in ma

[SadBunny]

Script works fine for me. You do realize your file will be stored as follows (assuming your computername to be MyComputer)?

C:\autoit-v3-setup\Examples\TingMyComputer.jpg

Not sure if that is your intention. I get the feeling that maybe you intended to put another backslash after the path?

[Loken]

Please try this;

#include <ScreenCapture.au3>

$Server = @computername
$path = FileSelectFolder("Choose a folder to save your image", @DesktopDir)
$path &= "\Ting "
Example()
msgbox(4096,'test',$path)

Func Example()
    ; Capture full screen
    ConsoleWrite('Filepath: '&$path & $Server & ".jpg"&@CRLF)
    _ScreenCapture_Capture($path & $Server & ".jpg")
EndFunc   ;==>Example

Please pay attention to the output error messages, they are pretty clear as to what is the problem. "A variable not being declared" is pretty descriptive even for a non-techie, plus Google Translate should be able to translate this without any problems.

It's works

thanks so much..

 

guinness:  I am trying to learn how to see the output error msg..
