release() in thread

[johannes-do]

When I release() in a thread and then press() again in another is_pressed() will always return False.

Here is some code example:

import mouse
import time
import threading


def release_mouse():
    while True:
        time.sleep(2)
        print("Release Mouse")
        mouse.release("left")


t = threading.Thread(target=release_mouse)
t.daemon = True
t.start()

while True:
    time.sleep(0.2)
    if not mouse.is_pressed("left"):
        print(f"Press Mouse")
        mouse.press("left")

expectation is that the output looks sth like this:
Press Mouse
Release Mouse
Press Mouse
Release Mouse
Press Mouse
....

But it looks like this:
Press Mouse
Release Mouse
Press Mouse
Press Mouse
Press Mouse
Press Mouse
Press Mouse
Press Mouse
Press Mouse
Press Mouse
Press Mouse
Press Mouse
Release Mouse
Press Mouse
Press Mouse

When keeping track of it on my own with a flag, I get the expected output:

import mouse
import time
import threading

is_pressed = True


def release_mouse():
    global is_pressed
    while True:
        time.sleep(2)
        print("Release Mouse")
        mouse.release("left")
        is_pressed = False


t = threading.Thread(target=release_mouse)
t.daemon = True
t.start()

while True:
    time.sleep(0.2)
    if not is_pressed:
        print(f"Press Mouse")
        mouse.press("left")
        is_pressed = True
