Default Re: how do you get text from an afx control?

You are talking of the AFX controls on Stars? no
sensible
method via AHK as far as I have found yet.

copy/paste is not workable.

OCR via ImageSearch may well be viable, but will be very tricky to get synced and working in a reliable manner. And will need a badass computer to run on multiple tables.

With a more powerful language, there may be ways... I asked Mr. Snood (of SpadeEye fame) how he was doing it when he was making his product work on Stars, IIRC he was hooking the Stars exe and capturing the Win32 GDI TextOut commands.



What are you trying to make? An AHK Holdem Indicator clone? Something completely different?

If I can think of how to retrieve the data you want, I'll tell you [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] More info pls.
