The Bypass the mouse for a faster click option increases the speed of your botflow, if supported by the target application. Nintex RPA LE uses your mouse to click a target. Enabling the Bypass the mouse for a faster click option clicks the target without using the mouse. Applications responding to changes submitted by an actual mouse click will not support the Bypass the mouse for a faster click option. Perform the Click action in the botflow to confirm the expected actions are made by the Click action. Clicks resulting in a pop-up window are not supported. If the selected target is a check box, you will have the option of choosing how the check box is displayed.

Note: Nintex RPA LE sends data to a field using the keyboard. Bypass the keyboard sends the information without the physical keyboard. Some applications only respond to changes submitted by an actual keyboard. These applications will not support Bypass the keyboard. To determine if your target application supports this feature, perform the action and confirm that changes have been made.
