In order to use the Hover Click, you have to first enable it. Please, refer to section for instructions.

The Hover Click window will open, and will stay above all of your other windows. You can use it to choose what sort of click should happen when you hover. For example, if you select Secondary Click, you will right-click when you hover. After you double-click, right-click, or drag, you will be automatically returned to left clicking.

To perform a hover click, simply hover your mouse pointer over an item on the screen. Then let go of the mouse and wait for a while; the item will be clicked for you.

There is a visual feedback for the elapsing time before the click: When you hover your mouse pointer over an item and don't move it, the pointer will gradually change color. After it has fully changed color, the item will be clicked.

You can abort a hover click anytime by moving the pointer. After a hover click has occurred, you have to move and stop the mouse again to trigger another hover click.

Adjust the Delay setting to change how long you have to hold the mouse pointer still before the hover click occurs.

You don't need to hold the mouse perfectly still when hovering to click. The pointer is allowed to move a little bit and will still click after a while. If it moves too much, however, the click will not happen.

Adjust the Motion threshold setting to change how much the pointer can move and still be considered to be hovering.
