Selenium element is not clickable at point issue- Python

I had the same problem. Selenium was not clicking a text field that I needed it to click and raising the same ElementClickInterceptedException.

What worked for me was changing the approach:

The element IS THERE. It is already loaded. I made sure of it by using (in my example):

WebDriverWait(driver, 60).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, "code")))

Ok, so then the problem is that Selenium is failing to click on it. We can use a different strategy: Using JS!

After you have the element clickable with the .until() above, remember to store the field in a variable, either by using the method above:

button = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[@id='save' and @name='save'][@value='View Report']")))` 

(without calling .click()

or by finding it:

button = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@id='save' and @name='save'][@value='View Report']")

and then the golden part: clicking on it through JS:

driver.execute_script('arguments[0].click()', button)

Worked for me, see if it helps you

first, get your windows size:

driver.get_window_size()

if your window size less than your clickable area (clickable at point (width=1750, height=770)), you need to resize your selenium driver's windows size;

driver.set_window_size(1750,800)

You need to consider a couple of things here. As per the HTML of the element:

<input type="submit" value="View Report" id="save" name="save" data-reportid="108">

The WebElement is a React element. So click on the element you need to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

• Using CSS_SELECTOR:

  WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input#save[name='save'][value='View Report']"))).click()
  

• Using XPATH:

  WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[@id='save' and @name='save'][@value='View Report']"))).click()
  

• Note : You have to add the following imports :

  from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
  from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
  from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

You can find a couple of relevant discussion in:

• Selenium Web Driver & Java. Element is not clickable at point (x, y). Other element would receive the click
• Element MyElement is not clickable at point (x, y)… Other element would receive the click

Element probably is covered by header or footer when selenium scroll to it. Try before your click scroll page up.

 JavaScriptExecutor.ExecuteScript("window.scrollTo(0, 0);");
