Click At Command

Syntax

click at <x,y> [with optionKey,

shiftKey, commandKey]

Description

The click at command is equivalent to clicking the mouse at a specific location. It can be used to send a mouseUp or mouseDown message to an x,y coordinate in the card window. Using the [with key] form of click at produces the same effect as clicking the mouse while holding down the specified key or keys. If <x,y> is in an unlocked field, the insertion point is set; if there is text at or past <x,y>, the insertion point is set at <x,y>. If there is text on the same line as <x,y>, but <x,y> is beyond the end of the text, the insertion point is set at the end of the line of text. If there is no text at <x,y>, the insertion point is set at the start of the line.
