Hello,

is it possible to select, click and drag a mouse position with a Midi command at the same time? I want to click in a field and change the value in it by dragging with the mouse pressed.

Yes, if you search on mouse drag on this forum, you will see several answers.

 

This one looks promising.

Hi, Steave,

Thank you so much for your advice.

Unfortunately I do not understand some of the connections yet, because my english is not good. I have tried to read the documentation, unfortunately without success. 

I know exactly what I want, but I don't understand where and how I program it.

 

I would like the following sequence:

1. set mouse position to X / Y

2. mouse button left click down

3. mouse movement 2 pixels left

4. mouse button left click up

 

does such a sequence work at all several times in a row if I turn a potentiometer quickly?

 

I understand how I can put a single one of these commands on a translator, but can I realize this sequence in a single translator? Does it have to be done via the rules?

 

I would really appreciate it if you could write that down for me.

 

best regards,

johannes

I would like the following sequence:

All of these would have the same incoming message with a different translator with a different delay in outgoing action. The delay would depend on how quickly the application responds to the event and when it is ready for the next. The translators should be in the order given as MT Pro works through the translators in sequence (but very very quickly). You might need to play around with the delay times until you get it right.

1. set mouse position to X / Y 

Translator with outgoing action No Delay

2. mouse button left click down

Translator with outgoing action 20 msec delay

3. mouse movement 2 pixels left

Translator with outgoing action 30 msec delay

4. mouse button left click up

Translator with outgoing action 40 msec delay
