ControlClick() Not Working?

[BruceCopperField]

My appli. is a java applet in browser having a SunAwtCanvas under the Internet Explorer_Server control. I can use MouseClick() to move the mouse and give it a click at my desired position. But when I use ControlClick(), it will only click on the current position of the mouse without moving it to the specified position. Is it a nature of the SunAwtCanvas control that prevent ControlClick() or did I made any miistake?. My test code is here:

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",2);substring
Opt("MouseCoordMode", 0) ; relative to active windows
WinActivate($title)
WinWaitActive($title)
sleep(1500)
ControlFocus ( $title, "", "[CLASSNN:SunAwtCanvas1]")
; ================================================================================================
;not working just click on the current mouse position
ControlClick ($title, "", "[CLASSNN:SunAwtCanvas1]","left", 1, 216,390)
; ================================================================================================
; these works!!!
;MouseClick ( "primary" , 135, 417, 1, 11)
;MouseClick ( "primary" , 10, 200, 1, 1)

I am having the same issue as BruceCopperField, running Autoit 3.3.0.0

- I never used to have this issue until recently

- ControlClick() worked without needing to resort to MouseMove() or MouseClick(),

but now, even with ControlClick() setting the focus to the correct Window, it does not use the correct coordinates,

so I am having to use MouseClick, which is not really an acceptable level of abstraction if controls change their location dynamically in a window with resizing.

It does not seem to make a difference which way I express the Control Name, whether as ClassnameNN, or Advanced.

It does not seem to matter whether I specify Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",1) or Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",4).

I have also noticed that AU3Info seems to be reporting varying Control x,y Coordinates at different times of execution.

Lately I have been having to add somewhere around 50 or more pixels to the value reported by AU3Info for MouseClick() events,

even after adding Position x,y to ControlClick Coords x,y, and even though the AU3Info Options.Coord Mode is set to Window, not Screen or Client,

and I set Opt("MouseCoordMode",0) in my .au3 code.

Is this being caused by some recent Windows patch interfering with Windows GUI Mouse Coord events?

Hopefully I'm just forgetting to set an appropriate Opt parameter, I cannot think what though...

ControlClick() doesn't move the mouse, it sends a message to the control (or the window if no control is specified).

Also, the X/Y coordinates in ControlClick() are always relative to the control itself and do not depend on MouseCoordMode.

If you use ControlClick() on a SunAwtCanvas control, the X/Y coordinates will be relative to that control.

My description was not accurate enough. Let me clarify the problem a bit. The issue I encountered was the ControlClick() just clicked on the current mouse pointer position regardless of what x,y value I gave it - if the control I am trying to click on is a Java Applet control.

I know only one java app that is using mouse pos as CC pos is runescape and its probably part of their bot protection. dono if its identical for other java apps newer tested it.

So if its game related, dont waits your time and read forum rules
