hi! i'm surprised how do you understand words "simplify by split to parts" - it is a great "step one"!



so, why do you decided to use mouse hooking? does wm_mousemove not suit you? look at this one:

hello,shoo



Thanks you taught me an another method for getting mouse Coordinates.



my final aim is used the desktop as background, not windows be cteated like WaterEffect demo. if i didn't use mousehook, mouse Coordinates can be gotten when the mouse is outside windows.

ok, got it. so, let's consider step 1 is over. let's do the next one - try to draw clock arrows. do not know how it will be simpler/faster(/smaller) - maybe it is better to use ready table of offsets instead of sine calculation each painting. of course, some intermediate values will be needed: at least one for minutes and three for hours (just a thought)...



regards!

 

hello,shoo



problem:



1. the chars are glittering.

2. every char can't fly when mouse is moving.

hi! i will look there little later - i'm just currently too busy with other work. regards!

 

Hello,shoo

the font size may be modified by following parameter.

;========================================================

invoke CreateFont,19,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,ANSI_CHARSET,\

OUT_DEFAULT_PRECIS,CLIP_DEFAULT_PRECIS,DEFAULT_QUALITY,\

DEFAULT_PITCH or FF_SCRIPT,offset FontName

;========================================================

hi!

just had a look at the prog: not easy to get it at once it is possible it will be hard to help you for me - it goes outside my experience, but i'll try

1.

each wm_timer you invalidate full window rect and force to fully redraw your clock. full redrawing enough slow thus you get such bad effect. i have no quick solution for this - it would be better if you contact with game writers - it is same game, just letters fly

2.

this problem connected with prev: you draw all chars after wm_paint got: no wm_mousehook will be received while you not finish processing prev message (wm_mousehook will be waiting in the message queue) - you should draw letters one by one, and between them check where is the mouse pointer: then your letters will fly separately like in the script.



ok, if i'll find anything new, i'll let you know.

regards!

 

hello,shoo



Thanks you for response.



I did it only for improving my asm ability. no times to be limited.

I'v already learned a lot skill from you.



regards.

 

thanks for your credits - it is mostly my common experience. i see you are quite persistent, so, everything is possible with this!
