Trouble with GetInput.exe and hovering.

[Cornbeetle]

Why are the two options "print" and "Scan" not affected correctly? I've set the coordinate range to cover each word for the hovering according to the errorlevel it gives when I click on "print" and "scan"...

Code: Select all

color 07 & cls
echo Choose an option:
echo Print
echo Scan
GetInput /M -65536 0 -65540 0 -131072 0 -131078 0 /H
if %errorlevel%==-65537 echo Print selected
if %errorlevel%==-131072 echo Scan selected
pause

GetInput [/T msecs] [/I] [{"chars"|keycode}...]
[ /M left top right bottom ... [/H [h1 h2 h3 ...]] ]

/M l t r b ... Coordinates of input selection boxes for mouse clicks.

...

If a list of coordinates for selection boxes is given, the *position* of the
selected box in the list is returned starting at one; ...

...

When no /M switch (list of selection boxes) is given, mouse button click
positions are returned as negative errorlevel values.

...

Screen coordinates start in 0 0 at the left-top corner of the screen.

That is:

Code: Select all

@echo off

color 07 & cls
echo Choose an option:
echo Print
echo Scan
rem          Print                    "Print" is in line 1, in columns 0 to 4
rem                   Scan            "Scan" is in line 2, in columns 0 to 3
GetInput /M  0 1 4 1  0 2 3 2 /H
if %errorlevel%==1 echo Print selected
if %errorlevel%==2 echo Scan selected
pause

Thank you, I'm studying more of the documentation to get a better understanding.
