How can I make a flow where the mouse left click is hold and dragged to another position without stopping the left click.

I need to drag click and then stop it at a certain position.

This isnt a UI Element

You can use the Send mouse click action with the 'Mouse event to send' set to 'Left button down', then use Move mouse and then Send mouse click again with 'Left button up'.

If you want to drag a specific UI element, you can also try using the Drag and drop UI element in window action. This can in fact do the trick.
It depends a bit on your specific use case.

But why exactly do you need to drag the button? Perhaps there is a better way to achieve what you want to do.
