QUESTION
ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-01 at 12:41In OpenCV, matchTemplate() has a masked mode. So you basically read the transparent template image as is and then extract its base image and the alpha channel. The alpha channel is used as the mask in matchTemplate(). See https://docs.opencv.org/4.1.1/df/dfb/group__imgproc__object.html#ga586ebfb0a7fb604b35a23d85391329be

QUESTION
Im working with Tkinter currently and im trying to make an draggable canvas image, the code i've "made"/edited from another stack overflow question, the second one to be particular. There code works for me when im using tk.Frame(), but it gives an error for Canvas.create_image(). So i edited it a little but now it seems to to be moving the image at all when i drag it
My code:

Answered 2022-Mar-24 at 02:39There are few issues inside make_draggable() function:
- first argument of
.tag_bind()is the item ID of a canvas item. For your case, it iswidgetargument ofmake_draggable(). So the following lines:
QUESTION
I have a while loop that iterates for 8 seconds, and inside it is a for loop which iterates 4 times, each time executing some pyautogui press functions. However, when my loop breaks, the for loop within continues until completion. Code:
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-23 at 23:39Well, your description doesn't reflect reality. The "for" loop certainly will end with the "while" loop, but you can't interrupt the "for" loop in the middle. If you want to stop in mid-keystroke, then you'll need to check the time at every keystroke:
QUESTION
i made a code and wanted that it types numbers from 12300 to 13000 but i got this error
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-20 at 07:13On line 12, instead of writing keyboard.write(numb), write keyboard.write(str(numb)). This changes numb which is an int type to a str type before writing it.
QUESTION
So I want to simulate key presses in a SPECIFIC window\chrome tab. For eg, with pyautogui:
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-16 at 01:38Unfortunately, PyAutoGUI can't do this because it only blindly clicks on the screen at x, y coordinates. Unless you know the coordinates of the tab, you won't be able to put it in focus and send key presses to the window.
I recommend a library like Selenium for doing GUI automation in web browsers.
QUESTION
I am currently working on a game in Rust (Piston Crate) and I want to center the Window it creates. It allows me to change the window's offset from the top left of the screen. I want to get the resolution the operating system works in (screen / display / monitor resolution) and center the window based on that.
In Python for example, by using pyautogui, you can get the screen resolution using pyautogui.size().
In Java, by using java.awt, you can get the screen resolution using Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize().
Is there something similar in Rust I could use? (std- or any extern crate)
ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-06 at 19:44I depends of the backend you use.
For example if you use the Winit / Glutin backend you can use the MonitorHandle struct, which has a size() method.
Docs:https://docs.rs/winit/0.26.1/winit/monitor/struct.MonitorHandle.html
or for Glutin https://docs.rs/glutin/0.28.0/glutin/window/struct.Window.html#method.available_monitors
The Glutin module also has a dpi module that can provide information. https://docs.rs/glutin/0.28.0/glutin/dpi/index.html
If you use SDL2 backend, you could take a look at the sdl2_sys module SDL_HINT_RENDER_LOGICAL_SIZE https://docs.rs/sdl2-sys/0.35.2/sdl2_sys/constant.SDL_HINT_RENDER_LOGICAL_SIZE_MODE.html
QUESTION
I realise that I am presupposing it is the if__name__ == '__main__' statement that will fix my problem, but after searching this site this seems to be a likely answer...
My script is designed to login to a Gmail account, open specific emails and click on a certain link. The script should then wait about 15 seconds, before closing the new window, and then move onto the next email.
However, when I try to run the script it gets stuck with a Runtime Error.
I will post the script and then the error message below it. Any help would be greatly appreciated, because I am completely stuck.
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-05 at 16:52It seems to be a Windows/Mac specific issue, check out this answer
It has to do with the way the multiprocessing module starts processes on those platforms. Basically you should not start processes outside the __main__ context.
So try to move any process creation into the main block as shown below:
QUESTION
I am trying to code a bot to automate some tasks on a videogame with JS and Node, so far I've been using RobotJS. The problem I'm facing is that I need to find something on the screen as it moves from time to time to then click on it. Something similar to PyAutoGUI locateOnScreen() function.
It needs to use AI to have some tolerance too, as the image will not be exactly the same from time to time, though it's almost the same so I think any basic AI for image recognition would detect it fine.
Does anyone have an idea on what to use for this specific case?
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-03 at 06:01Try this package called node-moving-things-tracker. I have been using it reliably for a while. It is being actively maintained. Data outputs are well-organized and interpretable. There are a few examples here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-moving-things-tracker
QUESTION
I am interested to see if there is a way to store mouse and keyboard movements to automate some repetitive tasks.
Right now, I am able to send mouse and keyboard movements using pyautogui like this:
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-01 at 18:59If I understood correctly, you want a log of actions in a txt file to be then read and reproduced by pyautogui.
There are many libraries for that like pynput that offer simple listeners to actions like mouse clicks, keyboard inputs... like so:
QUESTION
I'm trying to create a simple screen recorder with Python. This is the code
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-24 at 22:23There are several implementation issues:
- As far
"output.mp4v"is not a validmp4file extension in the current context.
Change the file name to"output.mp4" "MP4V"is case sensitive and suppposed to be"mp4v".- As gerda commented, the frame size may not be 1920x1080.
- The
else:,breakat the end of the loop may break the loop after one frame. cv2.waitKeyis not working without usingcv2.imshow(without an open windows).
The loop is not terminated whenqis pressed.
The code may never reach toout.release().
Based on the following post, I tried to create a portable code that waits for Esc key, without root privilege in Linux.
The solution I found (waiting for Esc) seem a bit complicated... You may try other solutions.

Install pyautogui
You can use pyautogui like any standard Python library. You will need to make sure that you have a development environment consisting of a Python distribution including header files, a compiler, pip, and git installed. Make sure that your pip, setuptools, and wheel are up to date. When using pip it is generally recommended to install packages in a virtual environment to avoid changes to the system.
