FS Capture to start recording?

[Mark5]

I am trying to make a script to use fast stone capture application (portable) to start recording video capture.

I tried this script which is partly recorded script, program starts but then nothing happens and no error reported:

Run("C:\Programs\FSCaptureportable\FSCapture.exe")
WinActivate("FSCapture.exe")
    Sleep(1000)
WinActivate("Screen Recorder","Record Screen  ")

FS capture have FSRecorder.exe process which is for video recording, it looks it cannot be started directly but only with FSCapture.exe

any help?

So.. i downloaded FScapture, when i open it, there's a toolbar with some icons, then i have to click one of them to take a screenshot or to record video, i don't understand how/why it would start to record with a winactivate.

I think you have to controlclick the things you want, to get where you want.

That is what Autoit recorder recorded. 

tried also:

ControlClick, Record Screen, FastStone Capture

Error. unable to parse line

Well, seems like you need to see some tutorials and the help file first.

Controlclick, as all other functions has a syntax and only accepts propper parameters.

It needs brackets ( ). What you got there shows you didn't even bother to look at the information about the function, and we're not gonna do it for you.

ControlClick ( "title", "text", controlID [, button = "left" [, clicks = 1 [, x [, y]]]] )

https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions/ControlClick.htm

You need to use Au3info.exe to retrieve the ID for the control you want to click or whatever you need to do.

No, that is not true, I only mistaken tutorial for autohotkey. Forum is on voluntary basis, I didn't ask you specificaly anything, dont tell me what I did or didn't and dont speak in plural.

You didn't ask me anything, that's true, you asked for help in general, i was the only one who answered,

pointed you in the right direction, and now you come at me like that?

That attitude doesn't help. Cya.
