The Click Element node performs clicks on UI elements identified by selectors. When executed, the node:

Uses the Window Selector and Element Selector to locate the target element
If Focus is enabled, focuses the element
Performs the specified mouse click action on the element
If Invoke Pattern is enabled for left clicks, it first tries to use the element's invoke pattern before falling back to direct click

Both Window Selector and Element Selector are required to identify the target element
The Invoke Pattern option is particularly useful for elements like buttons that have a specific invoke pattern
When Simulate Move is enabled, the mouse cursor will move to the element's position before clicking
If Invoke Pattern fails, the node will automatically fall back to direct clicking
