Simulate mouse click on html control

hello,
i working on a multitouch application which should load some
small html files in an html control.
but i don't have a mouse so I need to simulate the click on a
link in html etc.
what i get to work is the down event so the link changes
color but the it doesn't react on the up event.
any ideas?
thanks a lot
joerg

Insted of using an "<a href" type of link, and
highlighting it with CSS you can create a custom <div>
element, an assign to it javascript events onclick, onmousedown,
onmouseup, that would do all the wrok.
You can then fire those events from a diffrent
function/event.

Simulate mouse clicks inLabview

Hi,
I have a standalone driver that needs to be called many times in another VI, I don't know how to simulate mouse clicks in Labview to simulate a user running this VI. (This VI has a loop inside it, so it will run until a specific key is pressed)
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you need to programatically run the VI use the Run VI method of VI server. If you need to simulate users pressing buttons on that VI then use user events.
Attached is an example of a main VI that calls a SubVI and sends events to it. Open the SubVI front panel but do not run it. Open the Top Level VI and run it. Pressing the OK button on the Top Level or the SubVI will increment the numeric indicator on SubVI. Same with the stop button.

How to simulate mouse click

Hello,
is it possible to simulate and control a mouse click in windows with labview 7.1. I am able to control the mouse coordinates but not right and left mouse click. Is there a available VI that can do that?
Lukas

I have answered this in the other thread where you asked this. Please don't post the same questions to multiple threads.
After looking at the VI there, it uses the PostMessage function to post a mouse down message to a specific window. You can try using MouseEvent or SendInput to simulate a general mouse click (One of them is no longer supported, I can't remember which. You can find the details in the MSDN).

Simulate Mouse Click using AppleScript

I want to simulate a mouse click using AppleScript. I used click button of window command but unfortunately it only simulates a half click in the sense that you see the button highlighted but the action is not activated. I used a command key function, where I would press a # many times to make the mouse go down. However, this is very slow. I noticed that there is a couple of additional elements that can be used with AppleScript for example XTools and Extra Suites where I can tell the mouse to go to a certain location and click. I am on a Mac OS X 10.3.9 system (I believe I am using a PowerMac as well) and would like to know if any of the two programs are compatible with this system. I would appreciate any help in how I can install the software and what directory to place the software. Thank you very much for your help.

Hi, I don't know if the latest version works in 10.3, but might try Quickeys...

Simulate mouse clicks with keyboard

Hello,
I'd like to create a little tool in JAVA that would simulate a mouseclick when I pressed a key on the keyboard.
But that should be valid even when I have any other program as active (selected).
Can that be done in Java or Java can only listen to events generated when the java application is active?
If you have working code that would be very appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Nuno Vidal

Ok... have never done anythong with JNI before, can
you give me an insight?The way I would do it would be to write a system wide keyboard hook, (which you can't do in Java and should do in C++)into a JNI dll as smg123 said. Then you will have that method notify your java program on a key press and from your Java program you can use the Robot class to send a mouse click or since your already using a native code you could write a C++ function to do it and invoke that from your Java app.

Simulate mouse click and do application interface test

We have a application system with GUI and I need to implement a auto-test system. After launch the application, the interface has two frames. The left is the navigation frame, it display the contents of a book; the right is for display detail text. In the right frame, there are links(just like web) to lead user to other document after user clicking.
We need a test system to check the systm. So, my basic idea is to model the human action. Create the mouse object and modeling human click and check if the link display the correct content. But, I don't how to do it.
Can anyone give me hands?
Thank you

Hi,
first you have to know, which events can happen, second the listener-methods must be accessible.
with this premise you can do following:
- construct the event you want to use i.e for mouse
MouseEvent me=new MouseEvent(this, 1001, System.currentTimeMillis(), 0,50,50 ,1, false);- call the method which should receive this event
- wait what happens

Is there a way to simulate a mouse click anywhere on a screen in Dictate ?

I'm using Dictate because of hand problems. Unfortunately, it does not seem to have the ability as supplied to simulate mouse clicks anywhere on the screen as Dragon Naturally Speaking does on the Windows side.( I do not mean by this the ability to select an item in the menu, which It does have the built in ability to do.) It can, however, so I read, be scripted to do a lot of things. Is there an Applescript out there that would allow for the simulation of mouse clicks anywhere on the screen (as opposed to just on a UI item)?

Platform: 2.2 gHz iMac using Mac OS X 10.5.5; Dictate v. 1.2.1 Build
Okay, so, here, after a great deal of research, is a procedure for implementing a single mouse click anywhere on the screen. Since it’s a procedure, I’m detailing each step.
!. Download the scripting addition (sometimes known as an OSAX) xTool.sax from: http://lestang.org/osax/XTool/XTool-2.0.dmg.tgz. You will have to decompress the file (StuffIt) and double-click it to get it to unfold into a .dmg (disk image) file. In this file you will find the file Xtool.osax. Drag it into your MacHD (or whatever the name of your topmost volume is)/library/ScriptingAdditions (no spaces in the name) folder. The purpose of this is to place it into a folder where Applescript is expecting to find scripting additions. In other words, it’s hard-coded and you can’t just drop it anywhere because Applescript may not find it. Also, there may be more than one Library folder in other directories. Under 10.5.5. which I’m running, I can tell you it works where I placed it.
The effect all of this has is that when you create your script in Dictate’s New Commands window (Script Editor), Dictate will know what the commands “click mouse’ and “position of the mouse” mean. These are not standard Applsecript commands but are additions, hence the name Scripting Additions.
2. Start Dictate and in the File drop-down select New Command. This will take you to a window with a pane on the left with names such as Applications, Global, and several others. Click on Global (so that the command will be recognized no matter what application your are in). To the right of the pane you will see a number of commands listed by name and, underneath, a (very small) “+” (and a minus sign and a small icon). Ignore everything but the “+”. Click on the “+”.
Below several boxes will appear: Command, Description, Context, Type.
In Command Name type in the name you want Dictate to recognize to do the click. (I call mine Mouse click.) In Description you can type something like Single-clciks the mouse. In the Context drop-down make sure to select Global. In the Type drop-down, select Applescript.
Paste the following into Text Edit (orTexEdit Plus,if you have that):
click mouse {(position of the mouse), [1]}
For reasons unknown to me, you can’t just select that text, copy, and paste it into Dictate’s Script Editor winodw. You will have to select it in Text Edit and drag it into the Source text box.
Click on the Compile button at the left bottom. After it finishes compiling (a matter of seconds if everything is normal), click on the Run button with your mouse. If all has gone well, you will very likely see the Run button get pressed repeatedly. Take your mouse off the button so it stops blinking like mad. (The Mouse click Appplescript is repeatedly looking at the position it find itself and clicking again, and again.)
While your mileage may vary, I have been able to simulate single mouse-click using this workaround.
So far, I have not been able to simulate a double-click reliably. There is, I believe, an issue with the amount of time between the two clicks (a parameter of the click mouse command above which I did not go into here). For anyone out there who wants to work on that, I would be glad to hear your results. I’ve tried values up to 2000 in the DELAY parameter after the TIMES parm. Here is what the dictionary shows for this command.
click mouse?v
click mouse [point] : where to do the mouse click
[times integer] : how many times you want to clik the mouse
[delay integer] : delay between two mouse clicks
[using primary button/secondary button/middle button] : which mouse button
If I get this to work I will let my fellow sufferers know.
Thanks to Hiroto and Andrew99 in particular for their help.

Simulate mouse on Mac

Hello every one !
I have a virtual trackpad on my iPhone and to move my mouse I'm using this code one my mac :
CGDisplayMoveCursorToPoint(kCGDirectMainDisplay, CGPointMake(((float)aD.msg)+location.x, ((float)aD.msg2)+location.y));
It's working well but this not a real mouse because when I put my mouse on my hidden dock, this one doesn't display it self. I don't understand why. More over I tried to simulate mouse click with :
case MOUSECLICK:
[self postMouseEventWithButton:0 withType:kCGEventLeftMouseDown andPoint:CGEventGetLocation(CGEventCreate(NULL))];
[self postMouseEventWithButton:0 withType:kCGEventLeftMouseUp andPoint:CGEventGetLocation(CGEventCreate(NULL))];
-(void)postMouseEventWithButton:(CGMouseButton)b withType:(CGEventType)t andPoint:(CGPoint)p
CGEventRef theEvent = CGEventCreateMouseEvent(NULL, t, p, b);
CGEventSetType(theEvent, t);
CGEventPost(kCGHIDEventTap, theEvent);
CFRelease(theEvent);
Where is my problem ?
Thanks for your help !

I don't know whether you ever discovered how to do this, but the source HIG omits other details on a Mac.
I've got code in my app's assignment of accelerators to use "meta" wherever the Windows/Linux stuff would've used "ctrl". In practice, this causes menu accelerators to use the Command key instead of the Control key.
In a couple of dialogs where multi-select should be supported, I've found that Command-click also works. This appears to be the case without any special coding on my part.

Disable mouse events in ActiveX control

Hi,
I am using the Quicktime COM/ActiveX control for Windows from C# but want to change its default behaviour slightly.
Currently when the mouse is pressed on the player control it pauses, resumes when double clicked or if already playing reverts to fullscreen mode.
How can I disable this behaviour so that mouse clicks on the control do nothing?
I can respond to mouse down events and intercept the message in WndProc but the control still seems to recieve the message before my application code.
I get the feeling that I just need to change a property of the player, but which one?
Thanks in advance for your help.
James

Mate, you are a total life saver!!!!!!!!!
Thanks so much again.

Simulate a mouse click

Anyone knows how to simulate a mouse click?
I mean, for exmaple, when a user clicks a button another button is pressed too, with the click of the first button (without a click on itself).

Let me explain my problem:
I want to sort two JTables in simultaneus, they have the same header and the same columns but they have different data and differents models. I don't know how to sort the two tables data when the user clicks on some column of any table. The tables contain data of a first team and a second team of a soccer club. The unique solution that i've imagin is to simulate a mouse click in the column of the second table if the user clicks on the first and vice versa.

Event structure does not capture mouse click event on toolbar activeX control

How can I (neatly) control mouse click events in a multi-dimensional array?

Hello everyone!
     I have a question regarding the use of mouse clicks events in a multi-dimensional array (or a "2D" array as we refer to them in Java and C++).
Background
     I have an array of objects each with a corresponding mouse click event. Each object is stored at a location ranging from [0][0] to [5][8] (hence a 9 x 6 grid) and has the specific column and row number associated with it as well (i.e. tile [2][4] has a row number of 2 and a column number of 4, even though it is on the third row, fifth column). Upon each mouse click, the tile that is selected is stored in a temporary array. The array is cleared if a tile is clicked that does not share a column or row value equal to, minus or plus 1 with the currently targeted tile (i.e. clicking tile [1][1] will clear the array if there aren't any tiles stored that have the row/column number
[0][0], [0][1], [0][2],
[1][0], [1][1], [1][2],
[2][0], [2][1], [2][2]
or any contiguous column/row with another tile stored in the array, meaning that the newly clicked tile only needs to be sharing a border with one of the tiles in the temp array but not necessarily with the last tile stored).
Question
     What is a clean, tidy way of programming this in AS3? Here are a couple portions of my code (although the mouse click event isn't finished/working correctly):
public function tileClick(e:MouseEvent):void
   var tile:Object = e.currentTarget;
   tileSelect.push(uint(tile.currentFrameLabel));
   selectArr.push(tile);
   if (tile.select.visible == false)
    tile.select.visible = true;
   else
    tile.select.visible = false;
   for (var i:uint = 0; i < selectArr.length; i++)
    if ((tile.rowN == selectArr[i].rowN - 1) ||
     (tile.rowN == selectArr[i].rowN) ||
     (tile.rowN == selectArr[i].rowN + 1))
     if ((tile.colN == selectArr[i].colN - 1) ||
     (tile.colN == selectArr[i].colN) ||
     (tile.colN == selectArr[i].colN + 1))
      trace("jackpot!" + i);
    else
     for (var ii:uint = 0; ii < 1; ii++)
      for (var iii:uint = 0; iii < selectArr.length; iii++)
       selectArr[iii].select.visible = false;
      selectArr = [];
      trace("Err!");

Andrei1,
     So are you saying that if I, rather than assigning a uint to the column and row number for each tile, just assigned a string to each one in the form "#_#" then I could actually just assign the "adjacent" array directly to it instead of using a generic object to hold those values? In this case, my click event would simply check the indexes, one at a time, of all tiles currently stored in my "selectArr" array against the column/row string in the currently selected tile. Am I correct so far? If I am then let's say that "selectArr" is currently holding five tile coordinates (the user has clicked on five adjacent tiles thus far) and a sixth one is being evaluated now:
Current "selectArr" values:
       1_0
       1_1, 2_1, 3_1
              2_2
New tile clicked:
       1_0
       1_1, 2_1, 3_1
              2_2
              2_3
Coordinate search:
       1_-1
0_0, 1_0, 2_0, 3_0
0_1, 1_1, 2_1, 3_1, 4_1
       1_2, 2_2, 3_2
              2_3
     Essentially what is happening here is that the new tile is checking all four coordinates/indexes belonging to each of the five tiles stored in the "selectArr" array as it tries to find a match for one of its own (which it does for the tile at coordinate 2_2). Thus the new tile at coordinate 2_3 would be marked as valid and added to the "selectArr" array as we wait for the next tile to be clicked and validated. Is this correct?

Lose control of mouse clicker and keyboard

When I boot up and the desktop appears everything works fine for the first 5-10 seconds, then I find I cannot use mouse clicker or keyboard. Can still move curser, however. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

Diable "open dialog box" on right mouse click so I can use l mouse to advance to next slide and r mouse click to "go back." How in PP 2010 for mac????

I do presentations in PP10. I am new to macair, and used to Windows. HOW DO I DISABLE THE "OPEN DIALOG BOX ON RIGHT CLICK"? I would like to use L mouse to advance slide, and R mouse to go back. The default is to use R mouse to open dialog box. I can disable this by unchecking the box in "advanced" on the PC. How do I do it with the Mac????
Thanks

Hi Rod,
As originally stated in my opening post, the SWF is to be inserted into an Articulate '13 slide (what I called an aggregator originally - I tried not to bring them up since I don't want the chatter about "There's your problem - using Articulate"! ).
Recall that posting this published file to our LMS did not allow right-mouse click functionality as the flash player menu just gets in the way.
If I insert the captivate 6 files into Articulate as a Web Object (referencing the entire folder with html, htm and assets, and then posted to our LMS, and it DOES allow RM click operations in both IE and FF (although no sound on the Captivate slide in FF). But this is not what we want to do as this introduces 2 navigation controls (the Captivate one and the Articulate Player).
Why must anything be posted to a web server for this functionality to work?
I am able to go into the Captivate 6's published folder, and launch the Captivate demonstration by simply double clicking on the index.html file and this works great in both FF and IE after changing the security settings for flash.
Again - I can not believe I am the only one out there trying to use the right-mouse click feature to do a software simulation by embedding the Captivate SWF into an Articulate '13 project.
