mouse clicks

Do'es anyone know how to simulate a mouse click in a external program? I've read that it can't be done, but I've seen it done in other programs. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi ndbaker,

on a Mac you could use AppleScript to do this, but on Windeows you will need an external.

The built-in caypabilities of Rev cannot do this.

Hi ndbaker,

You might try QuicKeys. QK tasks can started from within Revolution and on the Mac you should be able to use QK as an OSA langauage.

Best,

If you want more control and small output size, I suggest you try out AutoIt scripting. It's quite different from the way Revolution scripting works but it's got great sets of functions for controls in the Windows environment. It's got the function you need about the mouse and lots more to typing the text or closing processes and stuff.
