Clicking on another application

Post by Fermin » Sat Sep 19, 2015 5:40 pm

Hi.

Is there any way to send a click to another application from LiveCode?… “Click at" does not work. (LiveCode Dictionary: The click command has no effect. This means that you cannot use the click command to switch to another application.)

Thank you

The link in the post here http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.ph ... 18#p101118 may not work. If I get chance when I am home and not using this phone I will check and see if the sample is still available somewhere

(Translated from Spanish by Google ... and a little retouching)

Thank you very much, SparkOut: The link you indicate is active and, if I understand correctly, It suggests using an external application or plugin. I work with Mac and I suppose I could use AppleScript but would have to learn it because I've never used. I’ll keep looking for a direct way to do it from LiveCode but I fear that is not possible.

P.S. What I want is to act (clicking) on the screen of Google Street View.
