If there is a canvas you can take a screen capture, if not ( minimized or disconnected ) the screen capture will either get an all black image ( if BMP you're gonna see chr(0) / NUL in the whole file minus the header ) or just plain crash the script. If not maximized, the canvas is the same as maximized. Only the local user will see a smaller window but for the remote, the size is as if maximized. If you find a solution to your exact problem ( not what you believe you'll need ), post it.

...I don't mind doing it here or in it's own thread. But @bladem2003's initiative is very different and will confuse future people reading this thread, so in that regard, would be advisable to open threads as needed for the concept of: embedding a website in a embedded browser that interacts with the PC**. And there a separate aspects to his project, being: 1) The html/JavaScript runs on a HTTP daemon. That will take a TCP hat. 2) The html/JavaScript will need heavy work. That will take a JavaScript hat. 3) The AJAX ( or what not ) and the SciTE interaction, will take an IPC hat. 4) The embedded browser will need options for Win7 ( and XP would be great ) but default to the better technology available on the OS, in case WebView2 is not possible on the user's PC, and that will take that hat. So that will be a few threads to be called ( in my way of naming things ) : "CHMless Help: The site", "CHMless Help: The browser", "CHMless Help: The integration". Am just thinking on my feet right now but that would keep each thread for each aspect clear and concise for anyone reading and collaborating on the project on it's own area of expertise I tend to over engineer stuff and uselessly complicate everything so, you all that are actively dedicating time to bring the idea to fruition, have a chat, maybe via PM/DM and ask each other what each will be participating in, because this is a larger, more involved project.*** Or open a thread in "AutoIt Projects and Collaboration" and announce the project, the pressing reasons behind it, and the need for talented people to bring it to life ( newbies accepted ) At the high CPU/time price of single file, a ZIP ( of sorts ) that contains all the files and is read by the HTTP daemon. And that too would be nice but it may take ASM to work fast in AutoIt. But that is a project of it's own. Responsiveness at the speed of the current CHM is the goal for now. **The PC interaction would benefit if a gray-hat is worn. Once this is a product, can it be easily abused ( hacked ) from outside the local PC ?, about from the inside, what are the risks ?. That too needs attention in this project. ***So, if you don't know how to do something, but are willing to learn, just go at it. Anyone would benefit from gaining experience in new things ( that are likely to expand one's previous capabilities ) Ok. I guess I just loaded you with the fear of god coding

...themes and no, DPI 😒 Maybe adding a DPI awareness snippet to it ? ( I won't be able to contribute now, as I have work to attend to ) That'll be good to have in an example given todays monitors. -

...looks structured and the examples look good. I can not read the code because IRL am overloaded with work, but I'll read the code and discern it, to give you any input that I may see worth noting if I encounter one. If you have any questions, post them for anyone to read it and offer a way about it -

1) With my sociologist hat on, I'll say that most limitations in intelligence are basically emotional. Happy to see that you discovered that you can 2) With my GitHub hat..., I don't think I have one of those 🤷♂️ But if you build it they will come. Do it here, there, it don't matter. Open up your heart code and let people in -

Take a look at https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/201673-json-http-post-serverlistener/page/2/#comment-1447447 for a how to JSON - AJAX ( the example on top when running the script ) to give you an idea for the example button(s) that is enclosed in "if (document.URL.match(/^mk:@MSITStore:/i)) {" Global $tcp_Port = 80 ; if 80 is in use, try 81, as in http://127.0.0.1:81/home/ that port should read from your ini file for now ( in the example I linked above )

I don't like MsgBox() outputs, but that is just my preference. The change looks good to me. There is a problem with using integers as index ( look here ). That should be noted, in the fact that strings are preferable in maps due to 🤷♂️ -
All these WYSIWYG CHM compilers use the M$ workshop. So they are wrappers. The nice thing is the HTM output, and that, we can cook our own in AutoIt. The science behind it is the JavaScript that makes it all work together. If someone feels like tweaking all these to come up with something visually appealing that works by running a script ( because by hand is a "nothing burger" ) then we have something that will work consistently in building the help file. Then the WebView2 have to work with the AutoIt3Help, and since WebView2 is only the "browser", an HTM daemon serving these HTM files to WebView2 has to work with it all too. Press "F1" and AutoIt3Help tells the "HTM deamon" to tell the browser to goto "this page" ( or something like that ). It's an interesting adventure to take on, and a very welcomed product once up and running. Should post: now recruiting "front end", "back end" and "all ends" developer. Must have 30 years experience in: everything
