Hi All,

We are looking to automate the actions of a tool that requires us to perform a mouse drag-and-drop operation. The tool requires us to click the mouse at a specific coordinate, hold it down, and drag it to another coordinate. We cannot use keyboard shortcuts, only mouse clicks based on coordinates. Is this possible to achieve using AA?

Hi @Sai Deepan.R 

You can achieve using a combination of Mouse Clicks(Simulates mouse clicks and captures UI element) and Mouse Move (Simulates moving the mouse pointer from one location to another) commands where you can capture based on coordinates.
