Hi Avinash

To do a right click you only need to spy the element you need to press then using a navigate stage set the element to focus. Add a second step in the navigate under the focus and add the root application element to this then select Global mouse click or Global mouse click center, in the mouse button options enter "RIGHT". This should work to right click the button for you.

Out of curiosity can I ask why you need to do a right click on a checkbox item?

Hope this helps

Avinash, hope this will help you

Mouse right-click Global Send Key expression "+{F10}"
Mouse right-click Global Send Key events expression "<{SHIFT}{F7}>{SHIFT}"
FYI, good reference on key codes for Send Keys here: http://www.nncron.ru/help/EN/add_info/keys_mnemonics.htm

Hi A A

There are 2 ways you can do a left click you can either select Global Mouse Click or Global Mouse Click center from the navigation actions for you element and in the mouse click parameter simply enter "LEFT" or if you prefer to use send Keys you can select Global Send Keys and enter the value "+{F9}"

Hope this helps

Hello Michael,

Is there a way to press and hold left mouse button with send Keys?
Some extension to the "+{F9}" ?

Thanks in advance

Hi @Cristian Tig

I've never tried to do that before but I guess if you add in "{SHIFT}" either as an additional step in the navigation action or with the "+{F9}" step.

Hope this helps
