Click Coordinate

Clicks at a specific coordinate on the screen or within an element.

Common Properties​

  • Name - The custom name of the node.
  • Color - The custom color of the node.
  • Delay Before (sec) - Waits in seconds before executing the node.
  • Delay After (sec) - Waits in seconds after executing node.
  • Continue On Error - Automation will continue regardless of any error. The default value is false.
info

If the ContinueOnError property is true, no error is caught when the project is executed, even if a Catch node is used.

Inputs​

  • Handle - The handle of the window to interact with.
  • Window Selector - The selector for identifying the target window.
  • Element Selector - The selector for identifying the target element.
  • X Coordinate - The X coordinate for the click position.
  • Y Coordinate - The Y coordinate for the click position.

Options​

  • Coordinate Type - Specifies whether coordinates are absolute or relative. Default is "Absolute".
    • Absolute - Coordinates are relative to the screen
    • Relative - Coordinates are relative to the selected element
  • Mouse Button - The mouse button to use for clicking. Default is "Left Button".
    • Left Button - Single left click
    • Double Click - Double left click
    • Middle Button - Middle mouse button click
    • Right Button - Right mouse button click
  • Show Window - Whether to show the window before interacting with it. Default is false.
  • Focus - Whether to focus the element before clicking. Default is true.

How It Works​

The Click Coordinate node performs mouse clicks at specified coordinates. When executed, the node:

  1. Retrieves the X and Y coordinates from the inputs
  2. If Coordinate Type is set to "Relative", it finds the specified element and adjusts the coordinates relative to that element's position
  3. If Focus is enabled and an element was specified, it focuses that element
  4. Performs the specified mouse click action at the calculated coordinates

Usage Notes​

  • When using relative coordinates, both Window Selector and Element Selector must be provided
  • For absolute coordinates, only X and Y values are needed
  • The Focus option only applies when using relative coordinates
  • Double-click timing is automatically adjusted based on the system's double-click speed setting
  • Coordinate values are treated as integers
