 |
|
I want to retrieve 2 numbers from the screen. They are a set of co-ordinates that change as you move the mouse so using the mouse is not possible.
The next catch is that even if you could use the mouse, the co-ordinates are not selectable to copy the data.
Am I trying to do the impossible? I am thinking that this is the case as I am not even able to do this manually at the moment, other than with a pen and piece of paper.
Program is "PlanetGIS Explorer", something that I am still learning to use. |

| Use the AutoIt windows spy program that comes with AutoHotkey to see if the co-ordinate text shows up in there. If it does, you could use the ControlGetText command to retrieve the co-ordinates without having to move the mouse |

| The data that I am looking for is in there, thanks. Now just to figure out the ControlGetText command. |
