_ScreenCapture_Capture doesn't work correctly

[phipe]

hi Team,

i try to capture the specific range of destop, but don't know why _ScreenCapture_Capture doesn't return the correct picture (e.g. i am try to capture 0, 0, 800, 800, but it only capture 0, 0, 300, 300). i used WinGetPos("") to test the screen, it returns: - 6, -6, 1459, 837 (x, y, wide, high), could anyone help, thank you!

i am using:

1. Win 10 Pro

2. Autoit Version v3.3.16.0

 

;_ScreenCapture_Capture(@ScriptDir & "\RIAsScreenShoot\" & $aResult[$iA] & ".jpg", 0, 0, 800, 800)
;_ScreenCapture_Capture(@ScriptDir & "\RIAsScreenShoot\" & $aResult[$iA] & ".jpg")

phipe,

Have you tried to compare what's working versus what's not working, or have you?

For instance, try with a previous version of autoit v3.3.14.5

Number of monitors?

Whats the output of the help file examples?

Did you try bmp file?

check  in Scale and layout configuration If it is 100%

@Deye Indeed, i upgrade from previous version (installed in 2021, forgot to check version number) to latest version due to this issue. Thank you!

@junkew i am using notebook computer, only one monitor, sorry, don't know how to try BPM file, i am finance background, only know how to apply basic autoit3 functions. The example script from help file shows the same issue, seems _screencapture doesn't work on my PC,  Thank you!

@ioa747 could you guide me how to check scale and layout configuration. Thank you!

right click on desktop and point to display setting

then you find it.

@ioa747 Thank you, my scale and display is 250%, i think this is the issue come from, but i can't change it to 100%, the screen will become very small.

[ioa747]

But you can check it if the problem is solved or is something else 😉

[ioa747]

But it is definitely to blame for the huge photo that you post

[phipe]

@ioa747Thank you, my issue solved if i change it to 100%. But 😥 seems i can't change it to 100%, the desktop become too small to read. Anyway, thank you so much!!!
