PyAutoGUI is a Python module that provides a simple and cross-platform solution. It is on a computer by simulating mouse and keyboard inputs.


Its primary purpose is to enable developers and users to automate repetitive tasks. It streamlines workflows and interacts with graphical user interfaces GUIs.  

  

Key features of PyAutoGUI includes:  

  1. Mouse Control: PyAutoGUI allows you to move the mouse cursor and click at coordinates. It drags and drops items and performs other mouse-related actions.  
  2. Keyboard Control: It can use PyAutoGUI to simulate key presses, key releases, and Keys. This is useful for automating tasks that involve typing or keyboard shortcuts.  
  3. Screen Capture: PyAutoGUI can capture screenshots of the screen or a specific region. It can be helpful for tasks that need image recognition or analysis.  
  4. Multi-platform Support: PyAutoGUI works across different operating systems. It includes Windows, macOS, and Linux, making it versatile for automating tasks.  
  5. Ease of Use: PyAutoGUI is easy to use, even for beginners. It provides a simple API that allows you to automate tasks without the need for complex coding.  
  6. Open Source: PyAutoGUI is an open-source project, meaning its source code is available. These foster community contributions and ensure the tool's continued improvement.  

  

By leveraging PyAutoGUI, users can create automation scripts tailored to their specific needs. It reduces manual errors and the effective to use of computing resources. Automation of repetitive office tasks or testing graphical user interfaces. PyAutoGUI proves to be a valuable asset in the toolkit of those looking to optimize workflow.

Code

In this solution we are using Pyautogui library of Python.

Pyautogui declare a variable

PythondotLines of Code : 10dotLicense : Strong Copyleft (CC BY-SA 4.0)

Dependent Libraries : 
a = "You choose A"
b = "You choose B"
c = "You choose C"
choices = {'Print A': a, 'Print B': b, 'Print C': c}
answer = pyautogui.confirm('Choose one.', buttons=list(choices))
#then either print the variable
print(choices[answer])
#or show it in an alert
pyautogui.alert(text=choices[answer], button='OK')

Instructions


Follow the steps carefully to get the output easily.


  1. Download and Install the Jupyter Notebook on your computer.
  2. Open the terminal and install the required libraries with the following commands.
  3. Create a new Python file on your Notebook.
  4. Copy the snippet using the 'copy' button and paste it into your Python.
  5. Remove last two lines of the code (alert function).
  6. Run the current file to generate the output.



I hope you found this useful.


I found this code snippet by searching for 'Pyautogui declare a variable' in Kandi. You can try any such use case!

Environment Tested


I tested this solution in the following versions. Be mindful of changes when working with other versions.

  1. Jupyter Notebook (anaconda 3) 6.0.1 Version
  2. The solution is created in Python 3.8 Version
  3. Pyautogui 0.9.54 Version.


Using this solution, we can be able to use confirm function in pyautogui with simple steps. This process also facilities an easy way to use, hassle-free method to create a hands-on working version of code which would help us to use confirm function in pyautogui.

                      FAQ  

                      1. What are the different message box functions available in Python PyAutoGUI?  

                      PyAutoGUI is a Python module that can automate your GUI and control your keyboard and mouse. It provides several functions to create display boxes.  

                      • alert ()  
                      • confirm ()  
                      • prompt ()  
                      • password ()  

                        

                      2. How does the mouse position affect the functionality of PyAutoGUI?  

                      The mouse position is a crucial factor in the functionality of PyAutoGUI. It determines the simulated mouse actions, such as clicks and movements. Understanding and specifying mouse positions is essential for successful execution.  

                      • Coordinate System  
                      • Specifying Coordinates  
                      • Screen Resolution  
                      • Dynamic Elements  
                      • Fail-Safe Mechanism  

                        

                      3. What is a Python module, and how is it used with PyAutoGUI?  

                      A Python module is a file containing Python code, defining variables and functions. Modules are a way to organize code, promote reusability, and keep related functionalities. Modules can help to encapsulate code into separate units. It makes the way easier to manage, maintain, and collaborate on projects.  

                        

                      4. How does the OK button play a role in using PyAutoGUI for automating tasks?
