Click operations

Click operations are Interaction Expressions. Use them to perform different kind of clicks, drag & drop, or mouse over operations.

Click operations require the syntax {COMMAND}.

RPA Studio offers the following click operations:

Command	Result
CLICK	Left-click
ALTCLICK	Left-click while holding ALT
LALTCLICK	Left-click while holding the left ALT key
RALTCLICK	Left-click while holding the right ALT key
CTRLCLICK	Left-click while holding CTRL
LCTRLCLICK	Left-click while holding the left CTRL key
RCTRLCLICK	Left-click while holding the right CTRL key
SHIFTCLICK	Left-click while holding SHIFT
LSHIFTCLICK	Left-click while holding the left SHIFT key
RSHIFTCLICK	Left-click while holding the right SHIFT key
LONGCLICK	Left-click that lasts for two seconds
DOUBLECLICK	Double-click
RIGHTCLICK	Right-click
DRAG	Selects the object you want to reposition. This object must support drag and drop operations.
DROP	Drops the object you selected with {DRAG}.
MOUSEOVER	Moves the mouse pointer over the control.

If you want to left-click without using a mouse, enter the command X instead of CLICK. X also verifies whether or not the element you want to click is active.

Define the click position

The commands CLICK and LONGCLICK allow you to define a click position.

By default, Bots click into the center of a button. If you - for instance - want to open a drop-down menu, you can specify where the Bot should click.

To do so, define an offset in pixel or percent from the top left corner of the button: {COMMAND[OffsetHorizontal][OffsetVertical]}

• Replace OffsetHorizontal with the required horizontal distance from the top left corner of the button.

• Replace OffsetVertical with the required vertical distance from the top left corner of the button.
