Had that too, I believe. I think you must update your AHK Version. |

|
|
toralf, Sir, I was working on this one too.
Had to learn, that I was miles from getting to something like that. Great script (not referring to lines of code), thanks a lot for sharing it.
I definitly will not use any longer the different tools, I installed (and installed again and again over the years), now I will stay with yours.
I suggest, to include ExeCapture in your Ini-file. I am using your tool on different machines, and - shit happens - irfanview has never the same path.
I can help myself, but I think other users will have the same problem.
Thanks, again |

@webber
Did you adjust the code in line 27
| Code: | | ExeCapture = i_view32.exe |
It must point to your "i_view32.exe".
I already wrote that installation process is not very well documented. You can overlook that little passage in the script very easily. |

fixing line 27 helped remove the errors , thanks,
Now I just have to figure out how to use this , not quite sure what it means by window vs screen vs other buttons. _________________ winxp pro sp2

Hi 172x,
Thank you for your version. I had a look at it. I do have to remarks:
1) You use MY, MY, MXend and MYend to crop the picture. That is dangerous, since if the user has draged the frame from bottom right to upper left, the values will overlap. Since you have calculate X,Y,w,h already, you can use them and they are the correct values.
2) I didn't use the {PRINTSCREEN} /clippaste way, since it will interfere with the clipboard. Since irfanview supports directly screenshot capabilities, you can use it without this interference.
Just my 2 cents
I have taken from your script the idea to put the screenshot filename and path into "". Thanks. I have edited my post and code |
Hi toralf,
Thanks for your sugggestion, here is my latest version which able to crop the picture from any direction.
| Code: |
Alt & Lbutton::
irfanviewPath=C:\Application\IrfanView\i_view32.exe
Folder=C:\Application\IrfanView\Captures
if IsIrfanViewExist(irfanviewPATH, "i_view32.exe (IrfanView)") = 1
{
CoordMode, Mouse ,Screen
MouseGetPos, Xs, Ys
Gui, 1:Color, EEAA99
Gui, 1:+Lastfound
WinSet, TransColor, EEAA99
Gui, 1:-Caption +Border
Loop
{
If GetKeyState("LButton", "P")
{
MouseGetPos, Xe, Ye
if (Xs < Xe) and (Ys < Ye)
{
X1 := Xs
Y1 := Ys
X2 := Xe
Y2 := Ye
}
if (Xs > Xe) and (Ys < Ye)
{
X1 := Xe
Y1 := Ys
X2 := Xs
Y2 := Ye
}
if (Xs < Xe) and (Ys > Ye)
{
X1 := Xs
Y1 := Ye
X2 := Xe
Y2 := Ys
}
if (Xs > Xe) and (Ys > Ye)
{
X1 := Xe
Y1 := Ye
X2 := Xs
Y2 := Ys
}
w := abs(Xe - Xs)
h := abs(Ye - Ys)
Gui, 1:Show, x%X1% y%Y1% w%w% h%h%
}
Else
Break
}
Gui, 1:Destroy
file_name := GetFileName(Folder, "SCR", "JPG")
TakeScreenShot(irfanviewPath, file_name, X1, Y1, w, h, 0)
}
Return
TakeScreenShot(ProgramPath, TargetPath, sXpos, sYpos, vW, vH, vType)
{
RunWait, `"%ProgramPath%`" /capture=%vType% /crop=(%sXpos%`,%sYpos%`,%vW%`,%vH%) /convert=`"%TargetPath%`", , hide
}
IsIrfanViewExist(FilePath, FileName)
{
IfNotExist, %FilePath%
{
Msgbox File: %FileName% does not exist !
return 0
}
else
return 1
}
GetFileName(FilePath, FilePrefix, FileExt)
{
FileNoCount=1
Loop,
{
IfExist, %FilePath%\%FilePrefix%%FileNoCount%.%FileExt%

I am new to AHK, I have one out of topic question, hopefully you are able to answer me.
Is it possible to change the mouse speed (e.g. mouse dpi) dynamically with AHK? I have tried "SetDefaultMouseSpeed" but not success. I like the idea of Logitech MX518 which able to change the mouse's dpi with a click of button.
Thanks |

Dear Guest,
I'm sorry that I caused so much confusion. But I think that your first script was better, the current does too much math. That is not necessary. This would have been enough
| Code: | If GetKeyState("LButton", "P")
{
MouseGetPos, MXend, MYend
w := abs(MX - MXend)
h := abs(MY - MYend)
If ( MX < MXend )
X := MX
Else
X := MXend
If ( MY < MYend )
Y := MY
Else
Y := MYend
Gui, 1:Show, x%X% y%Y% w%w% h%h%
}
Else
Break
}
MouseGetPos, MXend, MYend
Gui, 1:Destroy
file_name := GetFileName(Folder, "SCR", "JPG")
TakeScreenShot(irfanviewPath, file_name, X, Y, w, h, 0)
|
The magic is in | Quote: | | TakeScreenShot(irfanviewPath, file_name, X, Y, w, h, 0) | And onyl adjusting the function.
Regarding the mouse speed: AFAIK it only changes the speed of the mouse on the screen. | Quote: | | The speed to move the mouse in the range 0 (fastest) to 100 (slowest). Note: a speed of 0 will move the mouse instantly. | I do not know what you mean by DPI. Do you have a optical mouse that can change its scanning dpi? I would suggest to start a new topic on this (I guess you have done so already, since I remember having seen one topic on this).
Secondly I do not knwo what you want dynamically be adjusted? Doesn't your mouse move fast enough? On Notebooks I remember to have seen an acceleration menu for mouse pointers. The longer it moves the faster it gets. _________________ Ciao

I'm sorry that this caused so much confussion with the executable if IrfanView. I didn't realize that it was so difficult to spot. (Since it is the first line of code). Maybe I should have witten more then just "Adjust this".
Yes, you need the latest AHK version, as written in the header.
I have added a FileSelectFile for the IrfanView exe, so that it should be easier now. And it will save the selection to the Ini, so it will be there the next time. I hope this helps. I haven't tested though. I put this on you guys. The script doesn't check the existence of the dll though. _________________ Ciao

|
|
Hi Toralf,
great script.
I tried to adapt Capture Region to function on the second monitor.
| Code: | DrawRegionFrame:
;set fast execution
SetBatchLines, -1
;get starting position from mouse
MouseGetPos, MX, MY
;create transparent GUI covering the whole screen
Sysget,B_ScreenWidth,78
Sysget,B_ScreenHeight,79
Gui, 3:Color, Black
Gui, 3:+Lastfound +AlwaysOnTop
WinSet, TransColor, Black
Gui, 3:-Caption
Gui, 3:Show, x0 y0 w%B_ScreenWidth% h%B_ScreenHeight%
|
I changed all occurences of A_Screen.... to B_Screen ...
Selecting a region on the second monitor works now,
but I have found out, that the /capture=0 command option in IrfanView
captures only monitor one.
If called from IrfanView Gui via Options --- Capture/Screenshot -- whole screen the whole desktop is captured.
And your Irfanview FileSelectFile at the beginning does not work,
because
is not initialized at this point. |

Hi hps,
Thanks for the feedback.
I have moved the definition of the ini file further up in the code.
I wonder what B_ScreenWidth and B_ScreenHeight are. I never heard of them. Is this normal or a environment variable that you have set on your pc? Could you or Chris please clarify?
I do not know how I should alter the code. What happens if people have 4 screens? will it then be D_ScreenWidth?
I don't think I will change it in the code. But thank you very much for the comment, if some other user comes along with this topic, he might find it here or I can tell him how to fix it.
Regarding Irfanview: I do not know how to fix it. Maybe you could try the commandline option in a command shell of your PC. It it doesn't work the way it does from the GUI, you could ask the coders of irfanview to fix it in irfanview, since they seam to be able to do it. I can't help you on this, since I have no way to test it, nor can I change irfanview. _________________ Ciao

I set SetDefaultMouseSpeed to 0 and 100 but not effect on my mouse movement.
| Quote: | | I do not know what you mean by DPI. Do you have a optical mouse that can change its scanning dpi? I would suggest to start a new topic on this (I guess you have done so already, since I remember having seen one topic on this). |
Mouse speed is often expressed as DPI (Dots Per Inch). The DPI is the number of pixels the mouse cursor will move when the mouse is moved one inch. Most of the standard modern optical mouse works at least 800 dpi. Having a higher optical sensor means a faster and more responsive mouse. I already start a new topic, but no feedack:(
Description from internet
...an 800dpi sensor, relates to the resolution of the image taken by the mouse's CMOS camera compared to a real-world measurement, in this case, one inch. So, for a given sensor size of say, 20x20 pixels, an 800dpi sensor will see a smaller area than a 400dpi sensor, and hence, be able to track finer movements better. An increased DPI count also makes the mouse easier to use at high monitor resolutions. For example, if the mouse speed of a 400dpi sensor is set with a 1:1 ratio with no acceleration, for every inch the mouse is moved, the cursor will move 400 pixels on screen. This can be too slow for higher resolutions such as 1280x1024....
| Quote: | | Secondly I do not knwo what you want dynamically be adjusted? Doesn't your mouse move fast enough? On Notebooks I remember to have seen an acceleration menu for mouse pointers. The longer it moves the faster it gets. |
I have a 800dpi Logtech MX500 optical mouse, and I am able to set my mouse speed with a program called LogiGamer. This program allow me to set profile for different program/games. Each profile can have difference mouse speed, so I able to set faster mouse speed for gaming and slower for normal use etc. I would like to know whether AHK can do this. If AHK can do this, I no need to get other more expensive mouse (e.g. Logitech MX518) which able to change mouse dpi without software install.
The MX 518 has a resolution of 1,600 dots-per-inch (dpi), which makes it extremely fast and accurate. This is great when you need speed, but there are times in a game when that kind of resolution can be too much of a good thing. Basically, a lower resolution means the mouse moves more slowly across the screen, and a higher one makes it zippier. By clicking on the plus or minus buttons, you can kick the resolution of the optical scanner down to 800 dpi or 400 dpi without stopping in your game, then boost it back up again whenever you want to.
If you're hunkering down to do some long-distance sniping, for example, you can push the MX 518 down to 400 dpi for more precision. Then when the enemy figures out where you're hiding, you can move up to 800 dpi by pressing the plus button to hose the enemy down with a rapid-fire weapon..... |

| I may be misunderstanding, but it sounds like you would be better off leaving the DPI set for accuracy and increase/decrease the acceleration to your desired speed if possible. |
