Click simulation

[JoonasVali]

Not sure I completely understand what you are asking, but the library itself uses java Robot underneath by default, which is also replacable by anything else.

If you need to press any mouse button, then usual Robot mouse API will be sufficient, the library does not have a wrapper for mouse buttons as it only addresses movement.

Thank you @JoonasVali
I tried to use the standard robot function to simulate the click but then the mouse goes back to the previous location where i used the robot. So after each use of naturalmouse i have to call the move function of the robot
I guess that i am doing something wrong

Hmm, that sounds wrong. I've never seen Robot behaving like that. I would search for logic mistakes in the code. A click should not affect position at all.

The code for a click should look something like that

robot.mousePress(InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK);
Thread.sleep((int)(Math.random * 20)) 
robot.mouseRelease(InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK);

If the issue persists, can you try set the Robot to the MouseMotionFactory and use that same Robot for clicking and see if it makes any difference?

This should look something like:

MouseMotionNature nature = factory.getNature();
SystemCalls systemCalls = new DefaultSystemCalls(myRobot);
nature.setSystemCalls(systemCalls);

Your solution works !
In the mouse handler constructor i added

        MouseMotionNature nature = mouseFactory.getNature();
        SystemCalls systemCalls = new DefaultSystemCalls(robot);
        nature.setSystemCalls(systemCalls);
        mouseFactory.setNature(nature);

Thank you

Good to know. I think this is something I haven't yet faced and maybe a larger issue in hiding. Thanks.
