Hi :) suggested function

[Anthony Narkevicius]

I was checking out your AHK code, and was impressed you were able to get capture2text working with AHK correctly! Last time I tried and was unsuccessful. But anywho, I noticed you are having the user input their dpi scaling manually, and remembered I wrote up a function for that scaling a while back.

  Get_Dpi() {
    return A_ScreenDPI=96?1:A_ScreenDPI/96
  }

Scale_Position(val){
  Return val / Get_Dpi()
}

I hope this helps you! :D

oh wow, i didnt know you can do it like this, i will certainly look into plugging that in. whats the val that is input in scale_position?

and for capture2text working, had to make it write into a text file and then read that, the feature where it puts the ocr result into clipboard wasnt doing anything.

[Anthony Narkevicius]

The val is any pixel location, this just scales the value based on the DPI factor

Gotchu, was trying and trying and never got the clipboard to update.... lol ok

I tried to avoid using the method of writing it to disk for myself, since I am doing a constant loop in my script.
I have been using another fast AHK based OCR, called FindText but it requires a symbol library to be created in order to function, so it only works for that specific resolution. But my god is it fast XD

so lets say you have this:

x := 100
y := 200

you would plug in:

scaledX := Scale_Position(x)
scaledY := Scale_Position(y)
