Generating Mouse-Keyboard combination events in python
- by freakazo
I want to be able to do a combination of keypresses and mouseclicks simultaneously, as in for example Control+LeftClick
At the moment I am able to do Control and then a left click with the following code:
import win32com, win32api, win32con
def CopyBox( x, y):
time.sleep(.2)
wsh = win32com.client.Dispatch("WScript.Shell")
wsh.SendKeys("^")
win32api.SetCursorPos((x,y))
win32api.mouse_event(win32con.MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN, x, y, 0, 0)
win32api.mouse_event(win32con.MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, x, y, 0, 0)
What this does is press control on the keyboard, then it clicks. I need it to keep the controll pressed longer and return while it's still pressed to continue running the code.
Is there a maybe lower level way of saying press the key and then later in the code tell it to lift up the key such as like what the mouse is doing?
