Default can I make the mouse click at the current location?

In order to circumvent a difficulty in clicking on the desired control on a web page, I've coded tasks to FIND the control I want.

There were several controls with the same name.

Now that I've FOUND the correct control, how do I activate it?

I can't find a way to just "click at the current location"
and
ENTER
does not activate the control.

what to do?

Hello,

Try inserting 'Tab+Enter' keystrokes.

Only the mouse click is active.

I need to be able to "click" at the link I've found.

Hello,

What we understand is, you have found a particular web control using 'Ctrl+f' and you want to click on it. Am I right?
Sometimes finding particular web control does not activate that control, in that case you can use 'Tab' or 'Shift+Tab' key to activate that web control and then hit 'Enter' key.
For your reference, we have attached sample task file (FileAndClick.atmn). Copy it under location, 'C:\...\My Documents\Automation Anywhere\Automation Anywhere\My Tasks' folder.
This task will search for 'Automation Anywhere' link on Tethys website and to click on that particular link it uses keyboard shortcut 'Shift+Tab' followed by 'Enter'.

Hope that helps.
