Hello!  
I’m interested if its possible to move mouse cursor to a specified point (like (100,100)) after some event.

P.S. I tried to import java.awt.Robot:

from java.awt import Robot  
Robot r = Robot()  
r.mouseMove(100,100)

but that gave me an error - invalid syntax

Hi Krozzz,

Just get rid of the Robot on the second line

`from java.awt import Robot
r = Robot()
r.mouseMove(100,100)`

Since python is dynamically typed, you don’t need to specify it.
