Wayne, Thanks. I do mean something else...
And I thought I was good at explaining :) Here goes another try: WinVNC makes no attempt (in VNCHooks.cpp) to read text strings which have been put on the screen and send these as text strings to the vncviewer. Instead, it treats these strings as bitmaps. SOMEONE PLEASE CONFIRM THIS, OK? Please. It would be useful to me to have VNCHooks.cpp catch Windows text rendering operations (any text, anywhere on the Windows screen) and send these strings to the vncviewer as an RFB of a new type, called 'string' or 'text', so that I can modify vncviewer to automate a set of specific operations (like mouse movements and clicks) based upon a string appearing INSIDE a specific application. Then I can do strcmp's in vncviewer on the Sun, and automate some operations.... Someone, please, tell me you at least understand what I am asking... tia, Mark > > : It's clear that WinVNC doesn't trap and send text from the server to the > : viewer, and I guess from the lack of response no one has written code to > : do so. > > If by "trap and send text from the server to the viewer", you mean > that text can be cut or copied in an app running on the server PC desktop, > and then pasted into an app running on the client PC desktop, > then your guess is incorrect. > > If you mean something else, you'll probably have to be > more specific about what "trap and send text" means. > I expect folks didn't respond because they didn't > know what you wanted, and figured maybe somebody > else did know. > > > Wayne Throop [EMAIL PROTECTED] > _______________________________________ Mark Krieger UniPress Software http://www.unipress.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] (732)-287-2100x937 Developer of Footprints TMC's CRM Excellence Award 2001 Customer Interaction Solutions' Product of the Year 2000 Call Center CRM Solutions' Editors Choice 2000 TMC's CRM Excellence Award 2000 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------
