Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Closes after a period of inactivity, or when you send !close.

NOOOO

I was gonna help 😭

Oh hello xD

import tkinter as tk

# Create a root window
root = tk.Tk()

# Get screen dimensions
screen_width = root.winfo_screenwidth()
screen_height = root.winfo_screenheight()

print(f"Screen width: {screen_width}")
print(f"Screen height: {screen_height}")

# Destroy the window as we only need the dimensions
root.destroy()

I thought it was useless to ask here I assumed no one does renpy

import pyautogui

# Get the screen size
screen_width, screen_height = pyautogui.size()
print(f"Screen width: {screen_width}")
print(f"Screen height: {screen_height}")

# Get the current position of the mouse
current_mouse_x, current_mouse_y = pyautogui.position()
print(f"Mouse position: ({current_mouse_x}, {current_mouse_y})")

import pygame

# Initialize pygame
pygame.init()

# Set up the screen
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((0, 0), pygame.FULLSCREEN)

# Get screen dimensions
screen_width = screen.get_width()
screen_height = screen.get_height()

print(f"Screen width: {screen_width}")
print(f"Screen height: {screen_height}")

# Main loop to test coordinates
running = True
while running:
    for event in pygame.event.get():
        if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
            running = False
        elif event.type == pygame.MOUSEBUTTONDOWN:
            x, y = pygame.mouse.get_pos()
            print(f"Mouse clicked at: ({x}, {y})")

    # Refresh the screen
    pygame.display.flip()

# Quit pygame
pygame.quit()

You can also use an external program like MPos (for example) if you dont want to run a python script for some reason.
