MarcusFernstrom Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to click at pixel locations in an _ie window, without taking over the mouse. I haven't tried anything yet, other than the normal mouse click functions, because I don't know where to begin looking, and googling didn't turn up anything useful.
Kidney Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Open up the SciTE editor and press F1 (Or at the top of the window click on Help -> Help) This will open up the AutoIT Help window. Under then Index tab on the left, type in _IE From there you should see a number of functions that you can use in IE
gruntydatsun Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 use _IEAction with click argument. it'll click the button without affecting the mouse.
MarcusFernstrom Posted January 9, 2014 Author Posted January 9, 2014 I was looking for a coordinate system, but _IEAction may work in this case.
gruntydatsun Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 There is an option somewhere to select whether your coords are relative to the application window or the whole screen.
DaleHohm Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 see _IEPropertyGet to get screen or window cords.

jdelaney Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) I'm trying to play around with the following: $oIE.document.elementFromPoint(45,150).click Seems to work. Not sure if it will just click on the middle of the element found at those coords, or on those actual coordinates. Something to look into. Doesn't use your cursor.

MarcusFernstrom Posted January 10, 2014 Author Posted January 10, 2014 Nice, thanks guys, didn't think you could do that with IEAction, I'll let you know how it goes!
