It says in the instructions for UI flows wth WinAutomation that thse are not supported:
so how the %^@#%%&$%& are we supposed to do them? especially double click which is, you know, an essential part of some programs actions.
Desktop UI Flows
Web UI Flows
This is my workaround for a Triple Click command.
In Power Automate:
RunApplication 'TripleClick.exe'
AutoIT program TripleClick.exe
#cs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Script Function:
Triple click the current mouse position
#ce ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Script Start - Add your code below here
$pos = MouseGetPos()
MouseClick("left", $pos[0], $pos[1], 3, 200)
MouseClick() function above will click 3 times with a 200ms delay between each click.
Not sure if Microsoft will allow this post for suggesting use of freeware software.
I have the same need for advanced mouse functions. Double-click, repetitive or rapid clicks (loops are too slow), mouse wheel and other buttons and for non-ui-elements, click-drag(select), click-drag(move+drop).
Without these, there are too many tasks which cannot be fully automated.
The same request was made a year before this one. And now, 9 months later, no update on when the feature optimistically expected by https://community.powerplatform.com/profile/?userid=CB93F90B-5CAA-E911-A992-000D3A4F3343 Rohsh354 is still not included.
I would appreciate a more concrete reply that this is in the feature build and when it might be expected.
Thanks
Hello @Smila ,
As documented below, this is a known limitation with UI Flows and currently not supported.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/ui-flows/create-desktop#known-issues-and-solutions
UI Flows are evolving and I am optimistic that these program actions should soon be included in upcoming releases. Feel free to add an Idea on below forum:
