please help me with the pyautogui LocateCenterOnScreen [ Solved]

[tame grove]

Hello, I'm a beginner in python and I'm trying to use pyautogui with LocanteCenterOnScreen, but it doesn't return anything and the code is normal, does anyone know what I can do?

browser_icon = py.locateCenterOnScreen('imagens/browser.png')
py.moveTo(browser_icon, duration = 2)

the mouse does not move to the requested location

Can you print out the browser_icon to see if that's giving you anything, and can you share your full code?

Also, have you installed and imported PyAutoGui? @tame grove

And, that seems to be a venv shell

So you'd have to install it to the virtual environment you're using

It's possible that the image file imagens/browser.png is not being found by the program. Make sure that the image file is located in the correct directory and that the file name is spelled correctly. You can also try specifying the full file path instead of just the file name. Additionally, you can try adjusting the confidence parameter of the locateCenterOnScreen function to improve the accuracy of the image matching.

Seems your second suggestion is perhaps more applicable

What is the value of browser_icon?

[mental radish]

The value of browser_icon is the center coordinates of the image 'imagens/browser.png' on the screen, as returned by the locateCenterOnScreen function. If the image is not found on the screen, the function will return None.

oh, I misunderstood, not found on screen vs not found in file system

lots of ways to not find an image apparently

I'm going to send you the code here, I'm trying to do it in another way but the code doesn't find the image, I put a big image but it doesn't work either

I installed the pillow, I don't know if that influences it, but even so it is not locating

usually when the file is not found, it should show an error right?

I still haven't found anything that can solve this problem 😦

I was able to find the problem, the linux system was updated, so locatecenterOnscreen was unable to access the GUI. I did the update and it worked, Thanks Guys
