Interesting question MDonahue, thanks for posting.

There are no explicit mouse re-positioning commands because eValid uses browser resources -- not desktop resources -- to achieve simulated user input.

However, the re are two commands that come close to this request:

ClLClick wid x y time [NAV]

ClRClick wid x y time [NAV]

We say, informally, Client Left/Right Click where:

wid is the window ID

x and y are the offsets in pixels from the upper left corner of the browser window time is the length the button is to be down (e.g. 100 = 0.1 seconds)

and the optional NAV tag controls weather to invoke the "navigation synchronization logic"

You can include NAV tag if you know that doing the click at that location will produce a change in URL.

Don't use if unless you want to confuse eValid when the sensitive area of that position of the screen does NOT result in a change in base URL.
