Move Mouse
This step moves the mouse to a specified location on the screen. Mouse coordinates are relative to the top left corner of the window. X is the horizontal axis that goes from left to right and Y is the vertical axis that goes from top to bottom. You can use this step for mouse hover actions and drag-and-drop operations.
Additionally, it is possible to simulate hardware keyboard and mouse on an automated computer. For more information, see "Install the Desktop Automation Service" in the Kofax RPA Installation Guide.
