Global variables for coordinates not working with mouse clicks Topic is solved

[magicinmath]

May have to do with the window being a MS remote desktop app... Seems that placing the coordinates of the mouseclicks within global variables prevents the code from functioning. Let me know if I'm doing something wrong or if theres a solution?
Thank you.

This code works....

Code: Select all

F1::
	WinActivate, Remote Desktop App Window

	SendEvent {Click 97, 137, down}{click 240, 137, up}
	Sleep 85
	MouseClick, Right
	Sleep 85
	MouseClick, left, 263,200
	Sleep 85
	NAME := Clipboard
	Clipboard :=

	Sleep 85
	SendEvent {Click 97, 175, down}{click 214, 175, up}
	Sleep 85
	MouseClick, Right
	Sleep 85
	MouseClick, left, 265,241
	Sleep 85
	GROUP := Clipboard
	Clipboard :=

	Sleep 85
	SendEvent {Click 121, 310, down}{click 185, 310, up}
	Sleep 85
	MouseClick, Right
	Sleep 85
	MouseClick, left, 232,372
	Sleep 85
	SCANEVENT := Clipboard
	Clipboard :=

	Sleep 85
	SendEvent {Click 121, 392, down}{click 185, 392, up}
	Sleep 85
	MouseClick, Right
	Sleep 85
	MouseClick, left, 219,455
	Sleep 85
	SCANALARM := Clipboard
	Clipboard :=
return

How about this:

Code: Select all

	global NAME_sx := 97
	global NAME_sy := 137
	global NAME_ex := 240
	global NAME_ey := 237
	global NAME_ccx := 263
	global NAME_ccy := 200
	global GROUP_sx := 97
	global GROUP_sy := 175
	global GROUP_ex := 214
	global GROUP_ey := 175
	global GROUP_ccx := 265
	global GROUP_ccy := 241
	global SCANEVENT_sx := 121
	global SCANEVENT_sy := 310
	global SCANEVENT_ex := 185
	global SCANEVENT_ey := 310
	global SCANEVENT_ccx := 232
	global SCANEVENT_ccy := 372
	global SCANALARM_sx := 121
	global SCANALARM_sy := 392
	global SCANALARM_ex := 185
	global SCANALARM_ey := 392
	global SCANALARM_ccx := 219
	global SCANALARM_ccy := 455

I believe you have to de-reference the variables in Sends, or use forced expression mode.

How about this...

OhhH! I see, cause it's send event! Gotcha, thanks!

edit::

Only thing, the MouseClicks don't need to be referenced. But thank you, was lost on this one :p

If you're working with a variable in an expression, you don't enclose it in percents, strings are automatically considered a variable unless they are enclosed in quotes. If you're working with it outside of an expression, you do.

Code: Select all

TestVar := "Hi"
Hi :=  "Hello"

;Non Expression Example
MsgBox, %TestVar%    ; This Message box will say "Hi"
MsgBox, TestVar        ; This Message box will say "TestVar"

;Express Example
MsgBox %  TestVar     ; This Message box will say "Hi"
MsgBox %  %TestVar% ; This Message box will double reference as the variable Hi and the Message box will say "Hello".
