I'm using the latest build of JAWS 13 under Windows 7 Home Edition. Really hoping someone has created a simple script for getting the Background and foreground color at the mouse pointer location. I want it to grab the RGB number(#000000) , not the name (Black.) It would copy this info to the clipboard, so all I need do is open notepad and paste the results there to know what the colors are. I'm going to attach this script to a shortcut key, so I can have quick access to it whenever I need this info. Thanks for any help. __________� View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts __________� View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts
