Request/Help - Script for Nvidia Control Panel - (Moved)

[TimD308]

I found this post while looking for a script to automate something i want to do in NVIDIA control panel, I want a script that will; 

open control panel > Adjust Desktop Colour Settings > Use Nvidia Settings

Then another that will do the reverse

open control panel > Adjust Desktop Colour Settings > other applications control colour settings.

Or even better is some how a single script existed that toggled both?

I have this so far;

Run("C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\NVIDIACorp.NVIDIAControlPanel_8.1.958.0_x64__56jybvy8sckqj\nvcplui.exe")
sleep(3000)
ControlClick("NVIDIA Control Panel", "Adjust desktop colour settings", "[CLASS:Static; INSTANCE:5]")

It will open the panel and click into Adjust Desk Colour Settings, but i cant figure out how to get it to click on 'Use Nvidia Settings' and then apply and close the window

Create a new thread in the future.  It's taboo to bring back up dead posts.

Have you looked into command line switches? It may be a very simple way to do it with a pair of batch files you keep on the desktop. I found this that may help you:

On a different note: why do you need this functionality? I've been here for 15 years and you are the first to ask for this type of process where you change color settings. I'm curious and want to learn. On looking at a couple of Google boards I see some people want to switch around what is primary and secondary monitors but the switching of color settings is a new thing to me.

@TimD308,

On to of posting in the correct forum, please refrain from xcross-posting the same question in multiple threads.
This only leads to fragmented discussions..  so don't.
