AutoIt v3 comes with a standalone tool called the AutoIt Window Info Tool (Program Files | AutoIt3 | Au3Info.exe). AU3Info allows you to get information from a specified window or control that can be used to effectively automate it, including color codes and a lot of other current information.
Open the Tools menu and click on AU3Info, and follow these steps:
- Click on Finder Tool.
- Drag-and-drop Finder Tool over any window or program you want information from.
- Copy text data directly from the AU3Info data using CTRL + C, and then paste it into your script; for example, you can copy the title.
Information that can be obtained includes:
- The window's title: It is the name on top of every window.
- Text on the window (visible and hidden): It is the text inside the previously selected window.
- Window size and position: It has details about the window's height and width (x, y coordinates).
- Contents of the status bar: It shows the status bar's text or message.
- Position of the mouse pointer: It shows the details of the mouse coordinates (x, y).
- Color of the pixels underneath the mouse pointer: It shows the hex color codes below the mouse pointer.
- Details of the control underneath the mouse pointer (for example, button, checkbox, and edit): It has information about the control ID underneath the mouse, that is, the control number you will use for later control management.
