Bixby Sayz Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 There are a number of routines that you can use to determine if text is found when the text is known in advance. But what about when the text is not known in advance? I am trying to get the text in a specific area of the screen. The text is in the RS2 StatChars font, and the text is not known in advance. Is there a way to do this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanted Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Please tell me exactly what it is. If you are trying to read text of the screen you have to use GetTextAtEx if you are finding text theres a number of ways: IsTextAtEx, IsTextInAreaEx, FindTextTPAInTPA etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bixby Sayz Posted November 14, 2011 Author Share Posted November 14, 2011 Yeah I am trying to read the text rather than find it, which leaves GetTextAtEx. After a few attempts I realize I could be a very long time blindly trying combinations to get a meaningful result. I found a way to work around it by guessing at what the text might be. Lets me use the much simpler find routines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
