The last line above is a problem - try something like hdcDestH = win32gui.GetDC(dtwnd) > hdcDest = win32gui.CreateCompatibleDC(hdcSrc) > hBitmap = win32gui.CreateCompatibleBitmap(hdcSrc, 1024, 768) > win32gui.SelectObject(hdcDest, hBitmap) > destHDC = hdcDestH.GetSafeHdc() > > but I start having trouble with > hdcDestH.BitBlt((0, 0), (1024, 768), hdcSrc, (0, 0), 0x00CC0020) > TypeError: The 'O' param must be a PyCDC object > and on from there. Then you want something like win32gui.BitBlt(hdcDestH, (0,0), ...) I did a dir(win32gui) and BitBlt was not there! i had tried before, and so was mystified - I had ActivePython 2.4.1 Build 245, and just upgraded to 2.4.3, and now have BitBlt() I found some code at http://trac.browsershots.org/browser/trunk/shotfactory/lib/gui/windows.py?rev=585 import win32gui import win32con from time import time as t t0=t() hDC = win32gui.GetWindowDC(0) memDC = win32gui.CreateCompatibleDC(hDC) memBM = win32gui.CreateCompatibleBitmap(hDC, 1024, 768) win32gui.SelectObject(memDC, memBM) win32gui.BitBlt(memDC, 0, 0, 1024, 768, hDC, 0, 0, win32con.SRCCOPY) t()-t0 But, the timer gives .57seconds ! even slower than PIL's ImageGrab Module :-( win32gui.StretchBlt(memDC, 0, 0, 1024, 768, hDC, 0, 0, 640, 480, win32con.SRCCOPY) is .25 seconds, a bit better. Whole screen caps do seem a bit slow, so it looks like StretchBlt on subregions that are modified are required. It doesn't look like it can be done quickly, without the VNC dependant py packages or the Media 9 Screen codec > I can't say that I need anything from win32ui, since I don't know > what I need at all! In the above, you are using win32ui.CreateDCFromHandle() - and given what I said in the last mail, you probably want to try and find win32gui operations instead of win32ui ones I was trying the kitchen sink... Best, and thanks for the help, Ray _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
