And then, if you want it in the RGB format like you you described, Also call function ColorToRGBString, giving it the returned value from GetColorAtPoint. described In other words, var int iColor, string sColor Let iColor = GetColorAtPoint (GetCursorCol(), GetCursor_Row()) Let sColor = ColorToRGBString (iColor) CopyToClipboard (sColor) Something like that. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie McBride" <abletec@xxxxxxxxx> To: <jawsscripts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, January 29, 2012 10:33 AM Subject: [jawsscripts] Re: Script for getting color at mouse pointer location?
