ClickScan - A Windows utility that enhances a switch adapted mouse by providing auto-scan and other features especially helpful for single-switch access. ClickScan sends a sequence of keystrokes to an application helping users to navigate and make choices on websites and in some applications. ClickScan is activated by clicking the red button on its small floating window, or via the ~1 keyboard sequence. This sequence permits using switch interfaces intended for iPads that offer ~1 as an option including Pretorian's Applicator or the iSwitch 75. ClickScan was developed using AutoHotkey v1

As of 11/5/2024 ClickScan now has a new mode called "Drag Mode" to assist users who have difficulty with mouse or touch drag and drop operations. In this mode, when activated, the user selects a start point and then an end point. ClickScan then performs the drag operation. This mode does not work in browsers if the user is interacting via a touchscreen because AutoHotkey does not directly support Pointer Down event response. This is a problem with Chromium based browsers. However, Drag Mode works as I intended in the WebKit based browser Plaemoon. You can always use drag mode using a mouse with any browser. Additionally, I updated the code so that ClickScan Drag Mode works using Palemoon and in Boom Cards activities (which was the motivating reason I added Drag Mode.)

Another new feature called "Alternate Trigger" that allows almost any switch interface (like Hitch, Atech, Pretorian Applicator, etc) to activate ClickScan in the same way as clicking its red button. The Alternate Trigger dropdown includes the option for using joystick or gamepad buttons.
