How to click a button using a batch file?

Question

I need to click a button called \"save\" in a Adobe Air application called Arthropod. I can launch the app in the bat file with this:

cd C:\\Program Files\\A         


        

Answer 1

You cannot automate button clicks with a bat file. If it were possible, you would still need some kind of API for Adobe Air for access the control itself. But if there is a keyboard shortcut to this button, you can simulate a keystroke and send that to the application.
