Can you preview an event in Ical, using Lion, by moving your mouse over the event?

Question

I have been trying to fougure out to problems in Ical, using Lion.  There does not seem to be anyway to preview an event accept by double clicing the event.  I also do not understand why there is not a drop down menu to choose the month of a new event or when you change an event.  I hope there is a way to change to a drop menu for the month, it is such a waste time to have to type the date in every time.  Any suggestions?

The only problem is, that I can't move my mouse to the location I want. I heard you could use the Robot class for this, but it didn't work out as I wanted -I guess I screwed the code up-. So I'd like to know how I'm able to move my mouse, left click and right click, all at custom locations, given using JOptionPane. Could someone please write an easy example of all those things?Well, Robot is meant to generate mouse moves, mouse clicks, and key types, but consider this:
- if you need this to implement a feature of an application, I find this suspicious (except if you are developing a tutorial feature such as "Help/Show me how to...").
- if you need this to test an application, you'd better use a higher-level API, such as jfcUnit or Fest-Swing (tons of other exist), that enables you to simulate actions (and check results!) in higher-level terms, such as "click on this button" and "check this label is green" instead of "click at that position x,y", and "peek the pixel color").
Good luck,
