applescript - control click

问题:

How can I control click with AppleScript?

This script should work, but it doesn't

activate application "Finder"
tell application "System Events"
    tell process "Finder"
        key down control
        delay 1
        click at {600, 600} -- {from left, from top}
        delay 1
        key up control
    end tell
end tell

MouseTools is sometimes unreliable. I know of cliclick — still haven't tried it.

I'd prefer an AS only workaround but welcome any suggestions.

• Most of the actions from contextual menu you can do using menu bar (File, Edit, etc.). It can simplify your job.
• To open contextual menu for particular GUI element you should tell to perform action "AXShowMenu" to that element. You can use Accessibility Inspector application to find out the GUI elements hierarchy. Take a look at this discussion.
• You can try mouse keys. Take a look at this thread for details. Note that "Mouse Keys" settings is in the "System Preferences" -> "Accessibility" -> "Mouse & Trackpad" in Mountain Lion.
• For finder scripting AppleScript Finder Guide can be of much help.
