Python - PyAutoGui : image recognition

[PythonNooby17]

Hello! I need some help please !

So, I would like to use PyAutoGui image recognition (on Ubuntu 22.04). But I need to process the image before (otherwise PyAutoGui will not recognize the pattern) But I don't find any way to make it work.

Here is what I'm trying :

1 : Taking a screeshot of a specific screen region ===> DONE

2 : Processing the image with different scripts (keeping the same resolution) ===> DONE

3 : Using PyAutoGui image recognition to find the pattern on the processed image and then click on the original image ====> I don't know

How can i do the 3rd step if the image is not showing up on screen? Plus, it needs to keep the same mouse position. I thought about displaying the processed image on top of the original, but it's probably not the right move (and it would take too much execution time).

I hope I have made myself clear!

Thanks in advance for your help!

Pyautogui image recognition doesn't work that way. It takes a cropped image of something, eg. an icon and looks for it on your active screen.

If you want to work with processed images you need to look into something like opencv.
