Pyautogui: I have to move the mouse manually for pyautogui to click

stackoverflow.com › questions › 65450163 › pyautogui-i-have-to-move-the-mouse-manually-for-pyautogui-to-click

what i would do is instead of going

import pyautogui
pyautogui.FAILSAFE = True
while True:
    cash = pyautogui.locateOnScreen('cash.png',confidence=0.8)
    if cash != None:
        pyautogui.click(cash)

you would do

import pyautogui
pyautogui.FAILSAFE = True
while True:
    cash = pyautogui.locateOnScreen('cash.png',confidence=0.8)
    if cash != None:
    pyautogui.move(cash)
        pyautogui.click(cash)

your problem is that the program is just going to run click but it doesnt know to actually move there and THAN click.

PyAutoGUI

pyautogui.readthedocs.io › en › latest › mouse.html

Mouse Control Functions — PyAutoGUI documentation

To specify a different mouse button to click, pass 'left', 'middle', or 'right' for the button keyword argument: >>> pyautogui.click(button='right') # right-click the mouse

Installation

To install PyAutoGUI, install the pyautogui package from PyPI by running pip install pyautogui (on Windows) or pip3 install pyautogui (on macOS and Linux).

Keyboard Control Functions

To make holding a key convenient, the hold() function can be used as a context manager and passed a string from the pyautogui.KEYBOARD_KEYS such as shift, ctrl, alt, and this key will be held for the duration of the with context block.

Cheat Sheet

This is a quickstart reference to using PyAutoGUI. PyAutoGUI is cross-platform GUI automation module that works on Python 2 & 3.

Screenshot Functions

PyAutoGUI can take screenshots, save them to files, and locate images within the screen. This is useful if you have a small image of, say, a button that needs to be clicked and want to locate it on the screen.

Pyautogui seemed to be sending too many requests for the mouse to handle, so slowing it down by adding a time.sleep(1) did the trick.

I don't know if anyone else had this problem, but I am glad for it to be fixed!

Click relative to mouse cursor position(pyautogui)

I don't think so, at least not with pyautogui, AFAIK. Could you explain the reason behind wanting to click somewhere without moving the mouse? That info might be useful, people could give you alternatives. More on reddit.com
