Im using a scripts to compare 2 picture
if these 2 picture is different then it trigger a message on discord by a bot
if im not wrong these 2 picture come from these lines

   im = ImageGrab.grab(bbox=(left, top, right, bottom))
    im.save("screenshot.png")
    time.sleep(1)
    im1 = ImageGrab.grab(bbox=(left, top, right, bottom))
    im1.save("screenshot1.png")

by now my script only take the picture on the front screen no mater what application is on top
I would like to enhance it so that it remains functional even if another application appears on top of the desired application, including when that application is in the background.
