Hi! What software do i need to install for my windows 10? I dont know any programming but i think this will help me with my work since its routinary. Thank you so much.
You prolly dont give a shit but does anybody know a tool to get back into an instagram account..? I was dumb lost the login password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me
Mindblow. I've been wanting to develop machine learning agents to play video games for years, but have always failed to find a general way of combining the ML code with the game on the screen. Thanks man!
You can use SHIFT+Command+4 to get the XY co-ordinate on a Mac. It is the screenshot shortcut but works much better than running the print position command everytime.
there's a simpler way to find information about mouse position now, open a python shell and do this: import pyautogui pyautogui.displayMousePosition() when you run it, you will routinely be given back both the position and the RGB colour value of the pixel the mouse is on, please note that I'm not a programmer, and I've just picked this up when learning pyautogui
Using absolute positioning on the desktop is not without problems. You can never guarantee the positioning of screens for example. But if you are the one automating a task, it makes sense that you can position things properly. But I would dread the setup each time.
Mark Hurley that’s what I was thinking, I’m wondering if you could get by using a series of ‘tabs’ to get to the search bar instead? That would then work no matter what you’re running it on
@@darkinferno4687 Yes, I was just trying to expand your point, because it seemed like OP was implying that you can do that in Python in two lines simply because python is so concise (and that java is bad because it is not), which is simply untrue (rather it's because there's a module for practically anything in python).
Can you use pyautogui to select certain html elements? Pixel positions are fixed and depending on monitor and if the page is maximized or not sometimes pixel positions can be off
We want o create a virtual centos operating system and we need to open GUI using selenium webdriver in non headless mode and want to run some pyAutoGui cases.....is it possible.....if so could you please give some insights like how to enable non headless mode, how to enable mouse click etc...
In selenium it's easy to use named objects in webpages to access specific buttons. I'm not convinced gui programming on desktop programs will be easy. Still useful skill.
This is cool, but I reckon Autohotkey is much better for Windows GUI automation. It can detect open windows, maximise them, minimise them, move files around, copy them, delete them, detect the colour of a pixel on the screen, detect whether a key on your keyboard is pressed or not, detect open processes, loop through all the existing files in a folder, create timers, create simple GUIs, output text and simple geometric figures on the screen, and a lot more. It has many more features than PyAutoGUI. The only downside is the syntax is a bit weird and it takes a few days to get used to it, but once you do, you'll wonder how you could live without it before.
Hello, I'd want to know if it's possible to use pyautogui to automate clicks without sacrificing the functionality of my cursor as I use pyautogui to automate clicks, however my cursor becomes useless while the script is running since it moves across the screen.
How i can bind it to a specific windows so it only choose the coordinates in discord as example. also the position is different on different screens so how would i do it so it clicks buttons by a id or smh?
Is there a way you can store the x and y coordinates when clicking, so you can then input those coordinates into a function that will automatically click at that location
I have a desktop program installed on the machine, I wanted PyAutoGui to change data on it, but the simple fact of putting the focus on the program no PyAutoGui command works on it. What can it be? Is there any blocking for some programs?
As like you selected 280, 74 as a position in screen,,,,,,I wanna make a program to detect any change of the text in a particular position on the screen,,,,,how can i do that?

Hello TheCodex! Hope you're well. I have a problem with .press('enter') in the dropdown menu. Please help me how can I click enter on the option? Because it clicks but nothing is happening. Thanks.
I use a tiling window manager on Linux and I was trying to use the hotkeys in VS code and I was getting strange results from just going to the search box and not typing anything to going to the Home Depot website to my file directory. I just pushed the run arrow in VS code and it worked fine.
Maybe you can try taking screen shot of the search bars "search icon" and do search = pyautogui.locateOnScreen( "search_icon.png" confidence=0.9) Pyautogui.click(search)
I always get an error trying to install any packages whit PIP. I'm on windows 10 but typing "pip install pyautogiu" into the terminal promp just gives me an error
You absolutely could. PyAutoGUI allows you to take over your computer's controls and do as you please - Selenium is intended for browser automation. But for the example in the video, Selenium would have been the better choice!
I've used python in the past but I'm wondering if I can take the data from an excel sheet, store it and then iterate through + paste into another application (using pyautogui)?
I think im having problems with the x and y co-ordinates, when i press control+shift and r i dont think im seeing the correct co-ordinates. So that when i entering the numbers in the click sections and i run the code the browser doesnt populate with Hello world and enter doesnt execute the search.
Help is needed if possible. Using VS Code, on Win10. pyautogui.hotkey('control', 'c') is behaving completely different. it is not copying but instead pasting another URl from the browser history. Not too sure why or how it is doing that. Here is my complete lines of code: import pyautogui pyautogui.click(1136, 63) pyautogui.hotkey('control', 'c')
Does pyautogui have anything like the WinActive and Control functions in Autohotkey? I am looking for an alternative that's cross-platform and can still detect certain things like window names and controls. I can't really use screen coordinates because the gui elements change position all the time in the software that I want to automate, so that's where the Control functions would come in. It would allow me to take a specific window control and click it relative to its position, rather than relative to the mouse or screen.
When I do the pyautogui.click it's not actually clicking. It's not even moving the mouse there. I even tried copying exactly the code in the video, but it didn't even work then. I use mac. Do you know why this may be happening?
amazing guide bro. i was wondering if you could make a qutomation guide for android (by python if it's possible) too, because i didn't find a clear and easy guide for that. thank you!

2 mins into the video and my problem was solved, thanks a lot man
Found this video just now, great tutorial, helped me out quite a bit!
In Java, you must write 104524 lines of code just do define Mouse Cursor... 😂 Pyhon 2 lines! ❤️
cant u save the 104524 lines as a module and import it when needed?

Same question.
If the data source is dynamic and next query generates a different format.
just amazing ! dude you're the best
This is awesome, i want to learn more
Fantastic, this is going to make automating testing my database user interface so much easier.
Hey could you make a video explaining all the functions of the pyautogui module
Please
This is really cool! I put this in a while True loop and then I wanted to stop it😂😂 But it was continuously teleporting and writing "test" LOL!
That is why you add a kill switch smh
Thanx bro very helpfulllll😍

what happens if you move your program to another device/ change screen resolution/ minmax screen to half size?
it is pretty helpful. Thanks
What if the browser moves? Are the x,y coordinates relative to the browser or the entire screen?
nope . but dragRel and moveRel can move youre mouse relative to its position
In selenium it's easy to use named objects in webpages to access specific buttons.

its works perfectly on linux i have tested it a month ago i guess. :)
just wanted to know more features on pyautogui
Hi! Whenever I type pip install pyautogui on linus terminal it says package not found. Can you do me a favor and assist me
I believe that pyobjc is short for "python objective c", not object.
If this is done by pixel position then it will be exclusive to the screen you program it on ?
This is cool, but I reckon Autohotkey is much better for Windows GUI automation. It can detect open windows, maximise them, minimise them, move files around, copy them, delete them, detect the colour of a pixel on the screen, detect whether a key on your keyboard is pressed or not, detect open processes, loop through all the existing files in a folder, create timers, create simple GUIs, output text and simple geometric figures on the screen, and a lot more.

Hi,
I'm using Pycharm Community Edition 2018.3.2 on Windows 7, and ctrl+shift+r do not work. How to fix that?
shift+f10 to start an instance, can be used to run multiple instances
ctrl+f5 to rerun your program
ctrl+f2 (or shift+f2?) to stop your code
Maybe you can try taking screen shot of the search bars "search icon" and do
search = pyautogui.locateOnScreen( "search_icon.png" confidence=0.9)
Pyautogui.click(search)
what is better in your view: Selenium or PyAutoGUI ?
