Is there a way to make the mouse move to certain coordinates and click inside of a window that might be in the background or behind another window without losing focus.



The idea is to let it work in the background while I'm using the computer for something else.



I'm working with Python on Windows 10.






python windows window mouse move

Origin of the phrase “under your belt”?

Image
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0; } 17 1 Today, I found myself discussing what students should have "under their belts" during a lecture, and I wondered to myself if there was some inappropriate undertone here that I might be unaware of.
