Is it possible to emulate mouse drag and drop?

Post by gjwinter »

I am trying to control a program that requires me to drag an icon and drop into another. I created a macro driven by keyboard event - I tried to use a toggle left mouse button and then move mouse to new position and finish with toggle left mouse button again. This failed to work. Did searches all over the place and could not find any info. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Maybe no solution for "drag and drop"

Absolutely, in the mouse actions there is "Toggle left mouse button". That will allow you to drag and drop. I use it quite a bit in a game I play and it works well.
