Click

The Click step is one of the most commonly used actions (unless you are automating a terminal) in Desktop Automation. With a Click (and Move Mouse) step your robot can start and close programs, work with programs interfaces, perform drag-and-drop operations, select text, and perform many other actions that a user can perform with a pointing device.
