I was in the process of using Pixel to do my search between a large image and a small image. I got that one to successfully work but am having trouble getting the lockbits version to do what I want it to do.
Fist I want to loop through the large image finding the first pixel of the smaller image inside it. Then once finding the first pixel to do a math equation to tell me what percentage of accuracy it got off it. In doing so if it meets the criteria to move my mouse to that location on the screen at the first pixel (top most left) of that small image inside the large image. Which works with a great rate of success and is extremely fast compared to GetPixel format.
Problem Cannot get location on the large image of where the beginning Pixel of the small image is and move the mouse to that location. Below is the code:
Try
Dim ifnd As Boolean = False
Dim PreviousX As Integer
Dim PreviousY As Integer
PreviousX = MousePosition.X
PreviousY = MousePosition.Y
Dim MatchCount As Integer = 0
Dim oX As Integer = 0
Dim oi As Integer = 0
Dim iX As Integer = 0
Dim iY As Integer = 0
Dim bmp_original As Bitmap
Dim ImG As Bitmap
ImG = PictureBox2.BackgroundImage
bmp_original = ImG
Dim bmp_large As Bitmap
Dim SmG As Image
SmG = PictureBox1.BackgroundImage
bmp_large = SmG
Dim bmg As Bitmap
'large image
ImG = BBt
'small image
bmg = Abt

'large image
If BBt Is Nothing Then
Dim xbit As Bitmap = New Bitmap(Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Width, Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height)
Dim g As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(xbit)
BBt = xbit
g.CopyFromScreen(0, 0, 0, 0, Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Size)
g.Dispose()
Thread.Sleep(2000)
End If

Dim d As Integer = PixelsToLeft + PixelsToRight 'array distance between right edge of 10by10 section and left edge of next row
For y As Integer = 0 To 9
For x As Integer = 0 To 9
Dim oIndex As Integer = (y * 10) + x
Dim lIndex As Integer = (i + (y * (d + smWidth))) + x
If oPixels(oIndex) = lPixels(lIndex) Then
MathScore = MathScore + 1
xx = oPixels(0) + 2

SetCursorPos(xx, yy)
End If

End If
Next

Now if I could figure out how to get the mouse to move on the screen then I would have figured it out. Unfortunately I have been working on this for several days without any success. If you could help I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance.
