The Clickcount command determines how many times a user has clicked in rapid succession with the same mouse button. This allows the user to differentiate different actions to happen base off the number of clicks.
Case of : (Form event=on Clicked) Case of :(Clickcount=1) //perform action on single click :(Clickcount=2) //perform action on single click :(Clickcount>=3) //perform action with 3 or more clicks End case End case |
Note: If the On Double Clicked event is checked off in the properties event of the object, the On Double Clicked event will take precedence over the event where Clickcount=2. The actions under :(Clickcount=2) will not be executed if the double click event is checked. Therefore make sure to uncheck the On Double Clicked event in the properties list so the actions under :(Clickcount=2) can be executed.
