Vicarious Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 I run Scar 3.38, on a Windows 7 32bit machine. Sorry if this is a repost, I checked the first page and didn't see any topics resembling this issue. When using all forms of "FindColor", "GetColor", "FindBitmap" etc. I found that it is working off of only my desktop and not what is immediately on screen. So even if I have my browser maximised and run scar to find "Red" (255) at a certain point where Red actually is, it will just not find the color because underneath the Red in the browser is my "Blue" background. The inbuilt Color Picker finds the Color on the screen, but the script itself does not. Have I missed some vital settings or something? Thanks for reading, any input would be greatly appreciated! ~V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazarbeam Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 In SCAR's toolbar, are you dragging the cross-hair icon over the window you want to capture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicarious Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 Yes, I have tried both specifying the window and not specifying it. ~V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazarbeam Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Post a little sniplet of your code; maybe there's something there that can help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicarious Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 Hmm, I wouldn't really know what to post, it was simply (psudocode) writeln(GetColor(coords)) returns the color of my background background instead of whatever is on my browser at those coords. I tested it by getting the color of an icon on desktop at those coords and it matched. ~V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicarious Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 I was testing this out and found this: when I run Scar at first it works. Once I use the Crosshairs to specify the window I get the error message in the attached picture. After that it does not work correctly and only works based on the desktop.

Janilabo Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Does it happen every time? Or is that random error? I recommend you'll report it to here: http://forums.scar-divi.com/project.php?do=issuelist&projectid=1&issuetypeid=bug -Jani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
