screen.get_color always returns 0

[Archi73ct]

Im trying to detect the color at at special point, however trying to use screen.get_color(x,y) just returns a 0 when i was expecting a hexidecimal, is there a fix for this?

I also have the same bug. Also, when I use autopy.bitmap.capture_screen it returns a black image.
Did you find any solution?

On Windows with autopy3 replacing autopy3.screen.get_color() with autopy3.bitmap.capture_screen().get_color seems to circumvent the issue in my case.
Example:

autopy3.color.hex_to_rgb(autopy3.screen.get_color(500,500))
(0, 0, 0) - Wrong
autopy3.color.hex_to_rgb(autopy3.bitmap.capture_screen().get_color(500,500))
(247, 247, 247) - Correct

This should be fixed now in the latest version.
