In C++ or Python, I Need a function or script that given a windows
button control (hwnd) it retrieves the pixel data of the image
displayed on the button
(without taking a screenshot)  it should be able to grab the button
image data while the window is minimized.  For example in the game
freecell that comes with windows, each card is a button, so while the
window is minimized the script should be able to identify the
imagedata of each of the cards (HWNDS)

Hi

You can retrieve the handle to the image as well as the imagelist of a
button via the SendMessage:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/commctls/buttons/buttonreference/buttonmessages/bm_getimage.asp

Please let me know whether we are on the right track so I can proceed accordingly.

Thanks
