Something wrong with autoit info

[dersiniar]

Autoit windof info show pixel colors wrongly. I had problems with my script, i made another script to get pixel info to my mouse, and its different then autoit window info shows.

How to fix it?

Take a screenshot of your desktop, paste it into  (Windows)Paint or other painting app, use a color picker tool and search for the coordinates.
Then pick up the color, and click on edit colors, then look if the color matches.

When i look on your pasted image, the coordinate for 42,426 is somewhere inside the MS-Edge icon.
The color 2b1060 is dark purple. (looking at the pasted image, it's somewhere inside the CPUID icon.

The color ffd971 is the yellow'ish color.

RGBA (Red, Green, Blue, Alpha) = 1, 0, 128, 255
HSB (Hue, Saturation, Brightness) = 240,5°, 100,0%, 50,2%
CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key) = 99,2%, 100,0%, 0,0%, 49,8%
Hex (RGB, RGBA, ARGB) = #010080, #010080FF, #FF010080
Decimal (RGB, RGBA, ARGB) = 65664, 16810239, -16711552
Cursor position (X, Y) = 1019, 473

your value  0x1C1C1C not mach to any format

You need to give us more informations.

1) You can test another script like this one: 

(1st post) 

2) Paste your script so that we may test it on our machines.

Its not about script  tbh then script gives my right colors. ones that i can use for scite. Problem is autoit window info, it gives wrong codes. Codes that script wont reconise.

but heres the script i used to get codes that works for me. but i want to get autoit info tool to working.

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")
HotKeySet("q", "Color")
Local $aMPos

While 1
    $aMPos = MouseGetPos()
$Data=  ToolTip($aMPos[0] & ", " & $aMPos[1] & @LF & "0x" & Hex(PixelGetColor($aMPos[0], $aMPos[1]), 6))
    
    Sleep(10)
WEnd
ToolTip

Func Color()

  ClipPut ( "0x" & Hex(PixelGetColor($aMPos[0], $aMPos[1]), 6))
  ToolTip("Saved "& "0x" &Hex(PixelGetColor($aMPos[0], $aMPos[1]), 6))
  Sleep (1000)
EndFunc   ;==>Terminate

Func Terminate()
    Exit 0
EndFunc   ;==>Terminate

probably DPI scaling: https://www.autoitscript.com/trac/autoit/ticket/3238

Hmm. When i use your script and au3info (at the same time), both are showing me the exact same colors for all the spots that i have tried.
I'm on windows 10 ...

 

[Dan_555]

I can confirm that it is up to the scaling factor.
Just tested it on my machine.

Even the taking of the screenshots does not resemble the position of the mouse.

sorry for the misunderstanding.

But the cross points to blue, the info tool says blue, while the tooltip says 0x1C1C1C black.

I assumed you pointing the blue
