Mouse operations
Mouse operations are Interaction Expressions. Use them to perform different kind of clicks, drag & drop, or mouse overs on elements in your system.
Unlike click operations, mouse operations allow you to define the behavior of the mouse.
Mouse operations require the syntax {MOUSE[Action][MoveMethod][OffsetHorizontal][OffsetVertical]}.
Parameter Action
The parameter Action defines which click operation to perform with your mouse. You can use one of the following values:
|
Value |
Description |
|---|---|
|
CLICK |
Left-click |
|
LONGCLICK |
Left-click that lasts for two seconds |
|
DOUBLECLICK |

|
RIGHTCLICK |

DRAG |

|

Parameter MoveMethod
The parameter MoveMethod defines how to move the mouse. You can use one of the following values:

Offset parameters
The parameters OffsetHorizontal and OffsetVertical define the click position:

This example shows how to use mouse operations in a Step:
-
The Step Example Step performs a right-click on the button Hello.
-
The parameter Jump specifies that the mouse pointer should jump directly to the button.
-
The two Offset parameters specify that the Bot should use an offset of 10% along the horizontal axis and 10% along the vertical axis.
