This is jst a part of series m gonna click....

EDIT:: that last control click... x230 y140 is the one aint working.. rest are working good....

What is the program you are trying to control. Be specific. :!:

What is spacial about the 'last' location.
Actually, tell us what you are doing with each click.

Depending on the program, AHK can do a better job than just clicking 'random' locations.
Have you heard about and tried to use "Window Spy" on the program?

any help?

I read this many times, and i don't have idea why it won't work.
Other controlclicks worked and this is not.

Have tou tried to controlclick the last position first?
So we will ensure the problem may be the coords.

controlclick, X230 Y140, app

Does it click?

By the way, why do you use ControlClick ? a single "Click" is as much effective as it click "through" (on ?) the window (don't really know how to say it sorry).
ControlClick is better if you want to use the name of a Ctrl.
But if you use Coord what's the point ???

my app displays flash content, so i need coords to click. And i cant use click cuz i dont want mouse to go at coords. I want simple clicks
And ya, i tried changing sequences n stuffs, doesnt work either. I even tried this on paint. no results here too..

Weird.
Errorlevel does not retrieve 1?

I read something that could help, in the info of controlclick..

Controlclick structure:

ControlClick [, Control-or-Pos, WinTitle, WinText, WhichButton, ClickCount, Options, ExcludeTitle, ExcludeText]

You say it's a flash application. In the coords X230 Y140 there is no control?
I image there is not (if so, you can just controlclick that control).

Ok, now, the interesting thing comes in the "Option" option of Controclick Structure..

Xn: Specify for n the X position to click at, relative to the control's upper left corner. If unspecified, the click will occur at the horizontal-center of the control.

Yn: Specify for n the Y position to click at, relative to the control's upper left corner. If unspecified, the click will occur at the vertical-center of the control.

This means that, if there is a control near, you can get the coords of that control, and try to add Xn and Yn positions untill you reach the X230 Y140. Do you understand?

You make the controlclick structure as if you were clicking another control. Then you start "moving" the coords with the Xn Yn option, untill you reach the X230 Y140.

I know this sounds stupid.. but it's still an option

Ya, dats a flash application, literally full of buttons. But those are inbuilt in flash, so cant get their IDs with windows spy. I tried using your code in paint, but seems like it clicks just over itself, not with any displacement.

EDIT: i did some experiments, n i guess i cant seem to click above the half the height of my app... Thats just a guess that it is half. Maybe more or less. But lets say its half. I can click below the half, not above. Make any sense?

my app displays flash content

controlclick, X430 Y630, app

Make sure your Click Coordinates are relative to the window and not screen coordinates ( a common mistake when clicking con coords ).
You may have to do subtractive math to determine the actual relative coords.. just sayin'

And ya, its relative i got those coords from window spy's active window coords part

Another EDIT: I made browser embedded GUI, just to make sure if there was any problem with my app. I am facing same problem in that browser embedded GUI too.

[Ronins]

i cant use regular click, cuz i need the app to work even when it is minimized. Also, regular click will obstrtuct with some one's work

[Maestr0]

Try it when it's active with the code like below, just to make sure there's clicks in exactly the right spot:

MouseMove, 430, 630
sleep 100
tooltip click
sleep 1000
tooltip
MouseMove, 230, 140
sleep 100
tooltip click
sleep 1000
tooltip
