 +===== Click at Found Image =====
  
-==== Setup of Found Image ==== +You can also click relative to a [[:Found Image|Found Image]].  ​By default the image has to be unique (which includes not being visible in the action if the image is small enough not to be shrunk in the image well) otherwise Keyboard Maestro will not know where to click. ​Alternatively,​ you can specify which image to click (BestTopmost, Leftmost, Bottommost or Rightmost). You can also use the [[action:​Find_Image_on_Screen|Find Image on Screen]] action or the [[action:​For_Each|For Each]] action with the [[collection:​Found_Images|Found Images]] collection to find all matching images and click on them as appropriate.
