Hi, there are really some values I can't understand, but most of then seems ok, maybe these strange numbers are manufacturer's specific codes

Ok, so this is probably a stupid question that is already answered, but I couldn't get a clear answer from the thread for it. Does GDI do any image resizing at all right now? If so, could someone point me in the direction of some instructions and if not does anyone know how an AHK script might be able to do that?

Is there a way to get GDI (or another AHK method) to display the bitmap GDI has loaded into memory after a CaptureScreen call? I want to give people the option to preview the image before committing it to disk. I'll use a temporary file if I have to but I thought it would be easier to just display the capture w/o bothering with a disk write and delete.

try using stretchblt

@Rhys

you could also use stretchblt or bitblt withoutusing temp files, or more easily just write it to %A_Temp% and then Gui, Add, Picture

Ive removed this post. Sorry

@ tic - Thanks, I'm going to use the temp file since it's easier (read: I know how to do it) than the other method.

@ noclevername - http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12012 is a good example of using GDI to resize images (Screenshot app with thumbnail generation).

Don't you think it's rude to play with someone else's scripts like this in public, even without mentioning the original posts?
Even some of them are supposed to be used as the Standard Library.
I already saw you doing this once, so I guess it's not unusual thing with you.

Im very sorry. I did not mean to offend. I posted it in the same thread I thought just as an example of how it could be used for anyone that wanted to be able to use it. I will not do this again if it is not wanted. I was only hoping to demonstrate to someone that may be new to ahk of a way to use it. I just wanted to help people

If I forgot to give someone credit before then I didnt mean to, but Id say its a stretch to say that thats normal for me when I have over 600 posts, and in 1 or 2 Ive forgotten to credit someone

Edit: Ok. Im sorry. I realised what I did. I posted in the wrong topic. I meant to post it here:

http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/topic18146.html

but I got them mixed up. You didnt have to bite my head off about it though. You could have just told me it was the wrong topic

It's OK now. I'm almost sure now that you're young. That's the most precious thing IMO. Don't put it at a risk with these trivial social stuffs.

Heh. Im not that young

I didn't bite your head off, obviously.


How could I know you were supposed to post in other thread?

Fair point. Sorry for the mixup. Please assume in future that my intentions are good

@PhiLho: Many thanks for GDIplus_CaptureScreenRectangle

I needed a satellite image to photo-print of a land that I am about to own ( Target: 12x8 inches @ 200 DPI - translates to 2400x1600 pixels ).

My screen resolution is 1440x900, and so
I took four seperate snapshots of 1200x800 ( at maximum zoom provided by wikimapia ) by combining your wonderful function with MouseClickDrag,
and stitched them together with PaintShop to form a 2400x1600 image,
and here it is : PNG Image ( Note: 5.2 MB! )

I actually had used your code posted here, and yet, I thought bumping this topic would be more relevant.

Thanks

Off topic post, sorry.

Skan,
Are you sure this is not a treasure map? I see 4 "x marks the spot" locations... ...In all seriousness though, what is the fruit of the trees?

The Land itself is a treasure in this part of world
The map shows a land that has appreciated more than 10 times in a short span of 18 months.



Actually, it is a very old image wikimapia is providing and my best guess is it has been taken somewhere in middle of year 2000.
The land is now fully covered with Casuarina equisetifolia
