Look at DataLife's code on post #210.


There is a new AutoHotkey forum here.

Hi!

First of all thanks to Sean for this awesome lib!

I been using it for a while now, but lately, as I moved to Win8.1 64bit, part of it that converts captured image to file stopped working. I.e. I can still capture part of screen and it will be on clipboard, but it doesn't save it to file the way it used to.

I've searched for answers on this & other forums, but couldn't find anything. Could anyone please help me, what needs to be changed in the code?

Btw, I tried running script as Admin, and opening it with AutoHotkeyU64.exe - it didnt help...

+z::
filename = block1.png
initialx := 0 
initialy := 0 
finalx := 100 
finaly := 100 
qualityofpic := 100 
CaptureScreen(initialx, initialy, finalx, finaly, (finalx - initialx), (finaly - initialy), False, fileName, qualityofpic) 
EmptyMem()

Sean,

Is there a way to designate the path, for the output file? I wish it to output the file on my desktop.

Thanks

 

I believe it is.

Check out my scripts.  (MyIpChanger) (XPSnap) (SavePictureAs) All my scripts are tested on Windows 7, AutoHotkey 32 bit Ansi unless otherwise stated.
