You might try NOT setting the Z variable unless the state should change. As long as a state (either up or down) is set it will be sent to windows. If windows gets a "mouse_up" command when the mouse is already up it might simulate a click.

We tried to replicate your issue without success. The robofile below is what we used to get the mouse down but using manual mouse movement. Using the proximity of a blue object allowed us to 'click' the mouse. Moving the mouse around in MS paint created nice lines.

Perhaps you can post your robofile?

mouse click problem

Tue, 30 Nov 1999 00:11:00 EST

Hi everyone!
I'm trying to make the mouse moving by following a light. And clicking the left button when the light is on.
So, I use Center of Gravity to find the position of the light and then moving the cursor... But I have a problem when trying to make it clicking.
I use this VBscript to know if the Center of Gravity exists, and if it does, it set the Z variable (used in button status in mouse module) to LEFT DOWN, and if it doesn't to LEFT UP.

if (GetVariable("COG_AREA") > 1) then
SetVariable "Z", "LEFT_DOWN"
else
SetVariable "Z", "LEFT_UP"
end if

But in this way, the cursor continuously press and then release, in spite of remaining pressed.. So, if I try to draw something in Paint or any other program, i have lot of points and not a line...

I thought that maybe this is because of the real mouse isn't pressed, and the module mouse set the variable Z by the status of the real button. But if it's so, I don't know what i can do...

Any suggestion? thanks a lot! and sorry for my poor English :P
Bye!
