Appwindows

The appwindows library provides a unified way to find, inspect, and control application windows across Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Supported platforms:

1. Windows 10 and later
2. MacOS 12.2 and later
3. Linux with XServer (Wayland works, but with very significant limitations)

Install

pip install appwindows

Examples

1. Create window screenshot

from appwindows import get_finder
from appwindows.geometry import Size

finder = get_finder()

window = finder.get_window_by_title("Some title")

window.get_screenshot() # numpy.ndarray whith image

2. Move window

from appwindows import get_finder
from appwindows.geometry import Point

finder = get_finder()

window = finder.get_window_by_title("Some title")

window.move(Point(x=200, y=200))

3. Get window coordinates and size

from appwindows import get_finder

finder = get_finder()

window = finder.get_window_by_title("Some title")

points = window.get_points()
size = window.get_size()

print(points.left_top) # appwindows.geometry.Point(x=200, y=200)
print(size)            # appwindows.geometry.Size(width=200, height=200)
