google for these:
UI Prefab Browser
UI Inspector
cliclick
In case anybody else is looking for this information, it’s in the “Processes” suite of System Events.

To see the co-ordinate, use the screenshot capture feature (Selection not window) in Mac OS.
See the co-ordinates in the cross-hair. Then press Escape key to exit it.
do shell script "screencapture -c -i"
