Click a toggle on a resizable window

[GregS]

Hello,

I have a window that is split screen and the two halves can be resizes. I have a text entry field that is a number and increased or decreased by clicking in either the up or down arrow buttons next to the text box. There is a label “textâ€Â

Sounds like a case for the Image Recognition Library. Using this you can have the script find the location of the up arrow button and click it. See examples that come with the image recognition library:

Hello,

Download image library examples, however; I cannot get "Google Button" & "Password" examples to work. I have the bitmaps in the correct place. I keep getting "invalid numberic value for mosemove command" for "MouseMove>imgs_5,imgs_6" Tried to display values of imgs_5 & imgs_6 in message command and displayed no value.

Any ideas?

Cheers.

Could you post your script - only my crystal ball aint working today and I need a bit more to go on ...

Seriously, post your script and we'll be better able to tell you what might be wrong.

Also please confirm which version of Macro Scheduler you are running. Check under Help/About.

Here you go,

I have version 8.0.3e

I'll look at it more later but the first thing I see is:

ScreenCapture>X,Y,W,H,d:\screen.bmp

Screen Capture doesn't use Width and Height it needs coordinates for the four corners of the capture area, so you have to calculate X and Y for the lower right corner and then:

ScreenCapture>X1,Y1,X2,Y2,Filename

[Marcus Tettmar]

Do these image files exist:

d:\passwordedit.bmp
d:\enterbutton.bmp

Did you make sure imglib.dll is in the same directory as your script?

When you step through the script line by line with the debugger what is the value for imglib?

Hello,

Put recommended DLL in same folder as script and it worked. Thanks.

Now, suggestions how to speed up the process. Reduce the capture screen area?

Thanks & cheers,
