    duration=1.0                 # Smooth 1-second drag
)

⚡ Performance Tips

1. Use instant movements for speed: duration=0
2. Batch operations instead of individual calls
3. Cache screen positions instead of recalculating
4. Disable failsafe for maximum performance (use with caution)
5. Use hotkeys instead of menu navigation

---

⚠️ Important Notes

• Screen coordinates start at (0, 0) in top-left corner
• Multi-monitor setups may have negative coordinates for secondary displays
• Windows DPI scaling may affect coordinate accuracy
• Failsafe corners are: (0,0), (width-1, 0), (0, height-1), (width-1, height-1)
• Some applications may block simulated input (games, secure apps)

---

🔧 Troubleshooting

Mouse not moving to correct position

• Check DPI scaling settings
• Verify screen resolution matches expectations
• Use get_screen_size() to confirm dimensions

Keyboard input not working

• Ensure target application has focus
• Some apps require admin privileges
• Try increasing interval for reliability

Failsafe triggering accidentally

• Increase screen border tolerance
• Move mouse away from corners during normal use
• Disable if needed: DesktopController(failsafe=False)

Permission errors

• Run Python with administrator privileges for some operations
• Some secure applications block automation

---

📦 Dependencies

• PyAutoGUI - Core automation engine
• Pillow - Image processing
• OpenCV (optional) - Image recognition
• PyGetWindow - Window management

Install all:
