Element Myelement 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 ... is not clickable at point (x, y). Other element would receive the click" can be caused for different factors. You can address them by either of the following procedures:

1. Element not getting clicked due to JavaScript or AJAX calls present

Try to use Actions Class:

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("id1"));
Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.moveToElement(element).click().build().perform();

2. Element not getting clicked as it is not within Viewport

Try to use JavascriptExecutor to bring the element within Viewport:

JavascriptExecutor jse1 = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
jse1.executeScript("scroll(250, 0)"); // if the element is on top.
jse1.executeScript("scroll(0, 250)"); // if the element is at bottom.

Or

WebElement myelement = driver.findElement(By.id("id1"));
JavascriptExecutor jse2 = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
jse2.executeScript("arguments[0].scrollIntoView()", myelement); 

3. The page is getting refreshed before the element gets clickable.

In this case induce some wait.

4. Element is present in the DOM but not clickable.

In this case add some ExplicitWait for the element to be clickable.

WebDriverWait wait2 = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
wait2.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.id("id1")));

5. Element is present but having temporary Overlay.

In this case induce ExplicitWait with ExpectedConditions set to invisibilityOfElementLocated for the Overlay to be invisible.

WebDriverWait wait3 = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
wait3.until(ExpectedConditions.invisibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("ele_to_inv")));

6. Element is present but having permanent Overlay.

Use JavascriptExecutor to send the click directly on the element.

WebElement ele = driver.findElement(By.xpath("element_xpath"));
JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", ele);

Element is not clickable at point - other element would receive the click

As per your response :

You will have to scroll down to let the web element available to your script.For that you can use this code :

public static void scrollDown(WebDriver driver, String YoffSet){
            JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
            jse.executeScript(YoffSet);
    }

here you can call this method anywhere from your code.

Then you can use this code to interact with the web element :

WebElement element = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.id("static ID")));  
element.click();

Selenium Element click is not clickable at point (52, 346). Other element would receive the click using nodejs

Try replacing this line at the end await driver.findElement(By.xpath("//button[text()='Transfers']")).click(); with this one:

await driver.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", btn);

Python Selenium error Element is not clickable at point

Here is the simple approach that I would follow to select the items from this list.

# select Month from the list.
element = WebDriverWait(driver,10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//select[@id='matchStatsDuration']/option[.='Month']")))
element.location_once_scrolled_into_view
element.click()

By this way I don't have to worry about the overlaying top menu, which is obstructing the click on the list element.
