Disable Mouse Click in specific area of screen Topic is solved

[wyw]

I need to disable mouse clicks in this small specific area, as can be seen on the screenshot. The symbols are located in the upper right corner on the screen. Basically I have to set it up so that I can't click on these icons.

This script here almost does the job, but I don't know how to find the right coordinates, that it only really turns off mouse clicks in this particular area and not in all other areas:

Code: Select all

#NoTrayIcon
#Persistent
SetTimer, MouseCheck, 1 ;check every 100ms or however often


MouseCheck:
MouseGetPos, MouseX, MouseY


If MouseY < 90
{
	MouseMove, %MouseX%, 91
}

Return

Again, I basically want to make a "circle" around these symbols and insert the captured coordinates into the script, so that mouse clicks are not possible as long as you are inside the circle (coordinates), and as soon as you are outside the circle, mouse clicks work again.



Help would be appreciated. I don't know what to do at this point.

Code: Select all

#If corner()
*LButton::
*RButton::
*MButton::
*XButton1::
*XButton2::Return
#If

corner() {
 cornr := False
 MouseGetPos, xpos, ypos
 margin := A_ScreenWidth - 200
 If xpos between %margin% and %A_ScreenWidth%
  If ypos between 1 and 200
   cornr := True
 Return cornr
}

The script blocks the button if the mouse is in a corner. You can change the numbers in the function.

Coordinates are relative to the active window unless you add CoordMode. If you do use the active window (relative coordinates), you'll probably want to use the window width instead of screen width, or something like that. You can also just use absoluate coordinates if that's better.

Another method is BlockInput, but that's trickier.

I can't thank you enough, sir. Thank you so much. You saved my day, man!

You are welcome.

Just an alternative method if needed here.

Code: Select all

corner() {
 CoordMode, Mouse
 MouseGetPos, xpos, ypos
 Return (xpos > A_ScreenWidth - 200 && ypos < 200)
}

How can i disable mouse movement in a specific area of the screen? (physically mouse movement by hand)


Thank you!

Code: Select all

#if blockPos101([434,29], [434,29])

*LButton::
*RButton::
*MButton::
*XButton1::
*XButton2::
return

TAB::
MouseMove_(944,200)
return

#if
blockPos101(xy1, xy2) {
 MouseGetPos, xpos, ypos
 Return xpos >= xy1.1 && xpos <= xy2.1 && ypos >= xy1.2 && ypos <= xy2.2
}
