Window click not working

[zSynctic]

I'm not sure if its the click that is not working or its the coordinates because I saw another discussion and the answer was that it clicks based on the window not the screen coordinates if thats the issue how can I get the coordinates from the window. Thanks

Here is my code which is a test for the library:

from ahk import AHK

ahk = AHK()

ahk.set_coord_mode('Mouse', 'Screen')

win = ahk.find_window(title='New chat - Google Chrome')
assert win is not None, "Window not found"

# click within in the window
win.click(x=216, y=122)

The Window.click method uses ControlClick under the hood. So, it obeys the relative positioning considerations mentioned in the docs there. That is:

Mode 1 (Position): Specify the X and Y coordinates relative to the upper left corner of the target window's client area.

If the window you're interacting with is in the foreground, you may find using ahk.click easier if you want to use coordinates relative to the screen rather than the window.

By default, .get_mouse_position() (or .mouse_position) will retrieve coordinates relative to the active window. This is also the default behavior for ahk.click (which uses Click) but you can set the coordinate mode to change this behavior.

From the examples in the README:

ahk.mouse_position  # Returns a tuple of mouse coordinates (x, y) (relative to active window)
ahk.get_mouse_position(coord_mode='Screen') # get coordinates relative to the screen
ahk.click(200, 200)  # Moves the mouse to a particular position and clicks (relative to active window)
ahk.click(100, 200, coord_mode='Screen') # click relative to the screen instead of active window

Does that help answer your question?
