RGB color from point ?

[hutch--]

Has anyone seen, designed or used code that will pick an RGB color from and X Y location on the screen ? I have had a look around but cannot find any obvious way to do this.

GetPixel Function

Be sure to get the screen DC:

Code Select Expand

invoke GetDC,NULL ; get screen DC
mov hScreenDC, eax
invoke GetPixel,eax,0,0
push eax ; push the color
invoke ReleaseDC,NULL,hScreenDC
pop eax ; pop the color

Or access the pixel directly from the memory bitmap.
