disable failSafeCheck Python PyAutoGui without editing the pyautogui file

So I'm using PyCharm as a python editor, and I don't know if it's because of my editor, but whenever I run a simple PyAutoGui program such as:

import time, pyautogui

time.sleep(3)

while True:
    pyautogui.hotkey('ctrl', 'r')
    time.sleep(15)

for too long, I keep getting an error (I don't have that error currently, because I usually have to wait a long time before getting the error from pyautogui. But it looks something like) :

PyAutoGUI fail-safe triggered from mouse moving to a corner of the screen.

I'm not very experienced with Python PyAutoGui module, but is there a way to disable that safe-check without doing something in the pyautogui python file?

Solution

  • You're in luck! Just add pyautogui.FAILSAFE = True right after importing the library.

    Check out their docs it has a lot of good info.
