I'm create a project in Python using PyAutogui and I need to locate an object on the screen. First of all I crop a screenshot, and after that, I use pyautogui.locateOnScreen('element.png') for found the location. The problem is, the element sometimes is resized so this method can't found it. I tried use confidence but not work properly with that. How can i locate that element using pyautogui or something different? This is my code:

png = ["Andrew","David","Emma","Jay","Jesse","Josh","Mickey"]
screen = pyautogui.screenshot(region=(x+1,y+1,1281,751))

for element in png:
    if(pyautogui.locateOnScreen(element + '.png',confidence=0.7) != None):
        print("Find " + element)

Maybe, taking a screenshot every time you need to click that thing. Could you be more elaborate? – The Laggy Tablet Aug 07 '20 at 08:52
I've edited the question adding the code, takiing a screenshot could be tedius for the computer because i need to locate these objects in different views. Simply locateOnScreen doesn't work in this situation. – Fasertio Aug 07 '20 at 09:10
You could try resizing the image yourself if it's not found – The Laggy Tablet Aug 07 '20 at 09:13
That's not possible because i don't know the exact resize of the images, i'm trying now some solution based on OpenCV for detection image – Fasertio Aug 07 '20 at 10:18
Okay, well good luck. And make sure to post the answer in here when you find it – The Laggy Tablet Aug 07 '20 at 14:36
