 |
|
Is there a way to move the mouse so that it will simulate an actual movement of the mouse so the screen saver will not kick in.
The below code moves the mouse but the screen saver kicks in anyway.
| Code: |
:myloop
wait 59
LOADLIB USER32.DLL
%X = 20
%Y = 30
%j = @LIB(user32,SetCursorPos,,INT:%X,INT:%Y)
FREELIB USER32.DLL
goto myloop

Couldn't you just use the screensaver dll from PK? it allows you to disable or enable the saver. You could simply disable the saver while your program is working, then when done re-enable the saver.

It's on page 12 of the freeware extensions, vdssave.dll
As well, Codescript seems to have done a DSU for managing the screensaver and may also have the ability to enable and disable the saver.
It's on page 2 of source codes "Control Screen Saver and Monitor DSU"

| No I don't believe that will work. I work on a network with very strict GPO policies but unfortunately those GPO cannot be blocked they are enforced. Then there is a need to have a few machines that have the screen not go into screen saver mode "network monitor stations" So I'm in a quandary |

Try mouse_event:
| Code: | %%MOUSEEVENTF_MOVE = $01
loadlib user32.dll
random @datetime(hhnnss)
:Timer
REM Random amounts to move mouse each way
%%MOUSEY = @random(-500,500)
%%MOUSEX = @random(-500,500)
%p = @lib(user32,mouse_event,NIL:,INT:%%MOUSEEVENTF_MOVE,INT:%%MOUSEX,INT:%%MOUSEY,INT:0,INT:0)
:evloop
wait event,10
goto @event() |

If SnarlingSheeps suggestion does not work for you.  Robotic Arm  I think you could get the kit from Radio Shack here in the US. Another thought would be to either extend the timeout for the screensaver or just turnoff the screensaver. I think there is a programatic way to turn on and off the screensaver. I don't think I would want my mouse to all of a sudden start moving on me.

So you're not allowed to use a dll but you're allowed to use an exe? I'm not sure I understand what you mean, but it sounds like the vdssave.dll or the dsu might be exactly what you need. Disable the screen saver would save you from having to move the mouse at all.

I totally see both of your points. Here is what I did and the reason behind it. The reason is the user does not have elivated rights to his box. So he will not be able to extend or change the timeout. The user has a application that is displayed on a BIG SCREEN for there job. The GPO pushes down the screen saver policy from the root of active directory to all boxes. It is enforced. After 15 minutes if there not moving the mouse on the BIG SCREEN it locks and they have to login again or in some cases wait till user 2 comes back from a break or they hard boot the box.

Ah, Ok, I understand now. You can't even touch the saver settings due to lack of privileges.
