Use the pywinauto module

import pywinauto pwa_app = pywinauto.application.Application() w_handle = pywinauto.findwindows.find_windows(title_re=u'calc', class_name='SciCalc')[0] window = pwa_app.window_(handle=w_handle) rect = window.Rectangle() print rect.top() print rect.left()

For this library there is a graphical utility that allows you to scan through the properties of windows and generate python code. - SWAPY
