How to send "cmd + click "event to current mouse position?

[Brad Parks]

Hey! I'm trying to see how to send a "cmd" + "click" event to the current mouse position.

It seems like it should be something like:

  hs.eventtap.keyStroke("cmd", "leftClick");

but i tried that and a few other variations, and it doesn't work. Is there some way to do this? 

Thanks,

Brad

Hey

See hs.eventtap.event.newMouseEvent():)

Cheers,
Chris

ahh... great... i missed that... thanks! here's what I ended up with to do it:

function leftClickWithModifiers(keys)

  local ptMouse = hs.mouse.getAbsolutePosition()

  local types = hs.eventtap.event.types

  hs.eventtap.event.newMouseEvent(types.leftMouseDown, ptMouse, keys):post()

  hs.eventtap.event.newMouseEvent(types.leftMouseUp, ptMouse, keys):post()

end
