Cursor Color Grabbing

RA1N · 07-02-2014, 01:07 AM

This snippet lets the user get the color that is located at the cursor.

Code:
Dim BMP As New Drawing.Bitmap(1, 1)
Dim GFX As System.Drawing.Graphics = System.Drawing.Graphics.FromImage(BMP)
GFX.CopyFromScreen(New Drawing.Point(MousePosition.X, MousePosition.Y), New Drawing.Point(0, 0), BMP.Size)
Dim Pixel As Drawing.Color = BMP.GetPixel(0, 0)

Hope it helps in anyways possible.

If you have any improvements please leave them below and mention me so I can see it.

Love you HC Brothers/Sisters <3

The thread prefix should be source code and not resource Tongue

I have changed it for you. But take care to use appropriate prefix tag next time.

Will do. It wasn't a full source so I put it as that. I wasn't thinking about the actual resources like library files or gfx. Thank you for the clarification.

What exactly does this do? Does it grab the color of the cursor, or the object that the cursor is pointing at?

Nice, woulda been better if you could make it in a function to return the cords of the cursor and the colors in a array.

Who says you can't? this is just some base code that you can implement into systems.

In what color model does it grab?

RA1N · 07-04-2014, 05:42 AM

Whatever color you mouse is currently points at. It grabs the first pixel that you cursor is pointing at.

You didnj't understood his question. He is sane enough to understand that which ever pixel he will click it will grab that pixel. He wants to know in which color model will the pixel be shown. COlor Models are CMYK, HSV or HSL, or RGB or ARGB or HEX etc. etc. you didn't get that part.

@bluedog.tar.gz The color model is ARGB. (It is probably what you want to know imo)
