Multi-Step Click Automation: Clicking Several Points in Order
The most common automation request that a basic auto clicker cannot answer is deceptively simple: “click here, then click there.” Approving items in a queue, stepping through a wizard, exporting a report from a menu: these are sequences, and a tool that clicks one point at one speed has no way to express them.
The traditional answers are macro scripting languages, which are powerful but come with a learning curve. A scenario builder sits in between: you compose the sequence from steps in a UI, and the tool runs it in order. Here is how that works in Auto Clicker, free on the Microsoft Store.
What a scenario is
A scenario is an ordered list of steps that runs top to bottom and then loops. Eight step types are available: the five input modes (auto click, auto scroll, press and hold, swipe and drag, and keyboard input in both key-press and type-text forms) plus two glue steps, Wait and Move Cursor. A single scenario can hold up to 100 steps.
Every step keeps its own settings. A click step has its own button, position, and repeat count; a keyboard step has its own key combo and pacing. The scenario simply decides the order.
A worked example: approve and advance
Say a legacy tool shows a record, and for each record you must click Approve, confirm a dialog, and click Next. As a scenario:
- Auto click at the Approve button’s coordinates, one click.
- Wait 800 ms for the confirmation dialog to open.
- Auto click at the dialog’s Yes button, one click.
- Wait 1,200 ms while the next record loads.
- Auto click at the Next button, one click.
Set the scenario to loop 200 times and start it. The progress bar tracks the current loop and step, and the status bar mirrors it while the run continues in the background.
Coordinates for each click come from the point picker, so building the flow means clicking the real buttons once, not reading pixel positions off a screenshot.
Waits are the load-bearing steps
Almost every flaky sequence is flaky because it outruns the application. Dialogs take time to open; lists take time to refresh. Give every state change its own Wait step and be generous: an extra half second per loop costs you 100 seconds across 200 loops, but a race condition can misclick every single iteration. Waits accept anything from a few milliseconds up to an hour, which also covers slow periodic jobs like polling a dashboard.
Live control
A running scenario stays interactive. Pause freezes it at the next step boundary and Resume picks up where it left off, which is handy when a human needs to intervene mid-run. F7 remains the global emergency stop and ends the run instantly from any application.
Save it for next time
Scenarios are saved in the app’s library, so a flow you build for a monthly export stays ready for next month. For single-mode setups (a specific click rate you keep reusing), profiles do the same job with less structure: see how profiles and hotkeys fit together.
