In other words, you can't be doing something else on your computer at the same time this automation is running. IMPORTANT - this automation does NOT work in the background. clicking two buttons or links within in a web-page, with a user-defined delay between each click.Īll this is, is a slight modification of what was described over in this thread - this one being for two website 'buttons' rather than one. The following steps are a solution for automating the repeat clicking of a mouse, back and forth, at two different fixed positions within a web page - i.e. I would need a few seconds of delay before the loop repeats, which I presume I could do with a final 'w:' in that line. Anyone know how I could do that in Script Editor? The command line is: cliclick c:132,286 w:100 c:132,286 w:5000 c:1100,238 BUT - I don't know code and need a way for this terminal command to repeat 'x' amount of times. UPDATE: I just downloaded 'cliclick' and figured out how do both clicks as a terminal command, with the proper delays. I tried the markashworth workaround as detailed here - which also doesn't seem to work. Automator, Chrome and System Events are all checked within there (among other stuff of course). I do have accessibility set up, in system preferences > security & privacy > privacy > accessibility. I get the error 'application Chrome is not running when it is expected to.' It also never lists mouse clicks for some reason.

I tried building a Watch Me Do workflow, in Automator, but can't seem to get it to work. I presume this could be done with an automation to press the mouse button from two separate pixel coordinates, with delay, so long as the browser window doesn't move - unless there's a better way. Looking for a quick and dirty way to automate this mundane activity.
