  • graphic control pixel color question

    the %rgb_whitesmoke color is used in a graphic control. The actual value is &HF5F5F5, but when I read the pixel value back with GRAPHIC GET PIXEL it is &HF7F7F7. I think I am missing something, possibly brain cells...

    Code:
    #compile exe
    #dim all
    %IDD_DIALOG1     =  101
    %IDC_GRAPHIC1    = 1001
    '------------------------------------------
    function getxright (hd as dword) as long
        local p2 as pointapi
        local i, yy, l as long
        local s as string ' debug
        
        graphic get client to p2.x, p2.y
        ' start at the RH edge and move inwards until the rgb_whitesmoke chart area is reached
        ' This is the RH end of the plotbaseline.
        '? str$(p2.x) + str$(p2.y)
        yy = p2.y -20
        i = p2.x
        l = %rgb_whitesmoke
        s = "%rgb_whitesmoke =" + hex$(l) + $crlf
        do
            graphic get pixel (i, yy) to l
            graphic set pixel (i, yy), %red' debug
            if l = %rgb_whitesmoke then
                function = i
                exit function
            end if
            s = s + " " + hex$(l) ' debug
            decr i
        loop while i > 0
        graphic redraw ' debug

                graphic box (10, 10) - (x-10, y-10), 0, %rgb_whitesmoke, %rgb_whitesmoke, 0

    Works as requested here, Chris. I added a Textbox and it kicks out at F5F5F5:
    Code:
      
    'PBWIN 9.02 - WinApi 05/2008 - XP Pro 
    
    #Compile Exe
    #Dim All
    %IDD_DIALOG1     =  101
    %IDC_GRAPHIC1    = 1001
    %Show_tb = 1003
        Global hDlg  As Dword
    '------------------------------------------

        Graphic Get Client To p2.x, p2.y
        ' start at the RH edge and move inwards until the rgb_whitesmoke chart area is reached
        ' This is the RH end of the plotbaseline.
        '? str$(p2.x) + str$(p2.y)
        yy = p2.y -20
        i = p2.x
        l = %rgb_whitesmoke
        s = "%rgb_whitesmoke =" + Hex$(l) + $CrLf
        Do
            Graphic Get Pixel (i, yy) To l
            Graphic Set Pixel (i, yy), %Red' debug
            If l = %rgb_whitesmoke Then
                Function = i
            Control Set Text hdlg, %Show_tb, Using$("i #   l #, ", i, l) & Hex$(l)

      Thanks for trying it Gösta!

      I don't know why I did not suspect the video RAM - except that I have not had video RAM fail on me since the days of 16x64! Just re-tested with some other colors and it fails in a similar way.

      Come to think of it I have removed one screen and the Nvidia controller and had not noticed the error before doing that. Currently running the built-in Intel controller - shall re-install the Nvidia.

      **** later - Nvidia will not drive the old Samsung display. So it's time for a new screen. ****.
