How can I predict/get a pointer address in a child window?

Example: A poker game that have multiple boards. How do we find the value av something in a board?

Hope you understand the question. Thanks.

use code injection, or just find the pointer to the value
it's no different than a normal pointer

game has a pointer to windowlist
windowlist has a pointer to the specific window
the specific window has a pointer or even the real value of what you need

Thank you very much Dark Byte!

I find the pointer, but in the new window.. the pointer address is changed. My goal is to get the value, even if I restart the program and add a new window.

Do you know any example/tutorial/link on windowlist pointers?

as long as you create the windows in the same order pointers should work.
Else do a code injection on a part that reads out the value

also, a pointer is only a pointer when it has a static(green) address written as modulename+offset. If you do not have that, you havn't found the pointer yet (for a window it's most likely at least 3 offsets)
