Hey guys,

Is there any node that can **move mouse cursor by giving coordinates x and y**? 😃  
I googled but did not get any possible nodes yet.

Thanks

I don't know if it is even possible for a web page to move the mouse cursor for you, I think it would be rather confusing if the cursor moved about of its own accord.

In the title you said _and_ click node. If what you are trying to do is to simulate the clicking of a button then you can inject the same message the button would send so that it has the same effect as clicking it.

Looking for how to do keyboard macros, I found this. it is a nodeJS library but I think it can be used well on node-red:
