Hi guys,
I'm wondering if there are any way to force the mouse to an specific position.
I've tried with SetRawMousePosition but if doesn't appear to work on iOS/Android.
My problem is that I've some configuration screenshots and the button "accept and continue" is placed in the position along all the screen. This button change its color when mouse/touch is over it and when you press it, the same button in the next screen appears -visually- as pushed/pressed.
So if I could set the mouse/touch position at 0,0 at the beginning of each screen, I'd solve the problem.

Any idea or command, or walkaround for solving this issue?

Thanks a lot in advance!

I don't know about set the position of a touch I'm new to AppGameKit myself , but instead I would suggest to change screen when a button is released. Most UI works that way, Actions are trigger when a button is released and not when it pressed.
This way in theory the button going to get "pushed" only if it have been pressed in the previous frame. and being released in the current frame. So at the beginning of the new screen the button can't be visually pushed because it is not pressed at the beginning of the new screen. But in case it does, my guess would be it animation and stats (pressed or not) not reset at the beginning of the screen so also make sure the animation and stats of the button reset at the beginning of each screen.
