Point-N-Click is a FREE stand-alone on-screen virtual mouse designed for anyone with a disability that makes it difficult or impossible to click a physical computer mouse. As long as they can move a mouse, trackball or other pointing device, they can send mouse clicks to virtually any Windows application or DOS application that can run within a window and even many that are full screen.

Do you only need a little help?  Maybe you just have difficulty double clicking or switching to right clicking?  Try ClickAid mouse helper designed for anyone who has difficulty switching between mouse buttons or double clicking on a physical computer mouse. It will work with all mouse systems including head mice, tablet PCs, and touch screen devices.

Point-N-Click also acts as a companion product to Lake Software’s Click-N-Type.  It uses AutoMouse a feature similar to AutoClick for those who find clicking the mouse button difficult or impossible. 

Point-N-Click was designed with ease of use foremost in mind. Yes, it's FREE. No charge and no strings attached. 

The combination of Point-N-Click and Click-N-Type or other virtual keyboard will give the user complete freedom to use a computer. Accessing features like starting and closing programs, context menus and browser "Address:" fields, Email "To:" addresses, Email "Subject:" fields, dialog boxes like "Open" and "Save As...", and many other problematic applications. The user will even be able to play many games even if they run in full screen mode.  The main window is icon based and does not require reading skills or language translation. Even a young child can use it.

Point-N-Click is a 32 bit Windows® application and runs on the following operating systems: Windows® 95/98/NT4.x/Me/2000/XP/Vista/Windows 7/WIndows 8/Windows 10.

Please contact us at Polital Enterprises (Point-N-Click@polital.com) with your comments or questions.  We are interested in what you have to say.

Full Function Point-N-Click Form

Notice, the buttons are big so you can hit them.  Of course, when not in use Point-N-Click can be hidden so it's out of your way but ready to pop up with the sweep of the mouse pointer.

 

The form is user configurable so that if you don't need a function you don't have to see the button. 

Don't like the size?  Just resize it to what YOU need.

Point-N-Click LogoWhy Point-N-Click
The creator of Click-N-Type is a long time friend and when we were told about the program and why it was written  . . .

"A friend has a sister who is a quadriplegic with some very limited use of her right hand and wrist.  That was just about enough to operate a Trackball and click her way through Internet browser links.  When it came time to type anything in, she was stuck.  Well, I spent more than a week searching for "Virtual keyboards."  After all, someone had to have written one that suited her needs.  Sure -  There were free ones, Shareware ones of all prices, and some commercial "Buy it now, see if it works later" programs.  With the exception of one Hardware solution that came in at not much less than $1K, they all had one thing in common.  Under most situations, they just didn't work!  After investigating a little more about how Win32 really worked, I decided to just write the darned thing and stop wasting time.  I also found it appalling to see how many people were trying to Stick-It-To the disabled for a product that would cost little or nothing if it wasn't targeted to people who really needed it."

. . . We agreed to do some testing.  While testing Click-N-Type on various Windows Operating Systems and seeing the obvious value of the AutoClick feature we decided to follow a good example and carry the concept one step further creating an AutoMouse feature making the computer even more accessible to the disabled.  Why should a severely disabled person be limited to only one program that someone else has to open for them?  Point-N-Click was born.

Translate Menus and Messages:
Although the unmodified Point-N-Click was designed for a decidedly English speaking user community, the ability to change the displayed text of Menus and Messages, makes its use in other languages possible.  Translating all the text displayed by Point-N-Click is beyond the capability of Polital Enterprises.  This task should also not be left for the end user, but rather delegated to a "Translator."  Once the Translator has completed their job, a single resource file may be placed in the Point-N-Click Install Folder, and Point-N-Click will "speak" the new language.  Translators should read and follow the Help file instructions to translate the Messages-English.txt template provided with Point-N-Click.

Hopefully the lack of a language pack for a particular language will not present serious problems for the user since the main user interface is icon based and only the configuration program text needs translation.  The average user should have little reason to run the configuration program after the initial getting started configuration of AutoClick, AutoMouse, and Mouse Sensitivity.

Download Instructions For Language Packs: After downloading the language pack run it. It will install the Messages.txt in your Point-N-Click directory.  That's all there is to it.

We encourage anyone using the Message Translation feature to donate the files they've worked on, so others may benefit from an edition of Point-N-Click that functions in their language.  Below you will find:

The self extracting  installation files for both the latest version of Point-N-Click and the Help files.   We're really sorry about the size of this file, but it can't be helped.  Although most people already have most of the support files, We can't guarantee it.  So, even though the program is small, the installation package has to be this big.

Note: Wherever you install to, that directory should be empty before installing.  Note Well:  If you have installed a previous version of Point-N-Click that did not use the Installer2Go you MUST Remove it first.  All your settings will be remembered when you reinstall.

NOTE: If you install in Windows XP SP2 you may see a warning window stating that “The publisher could not be verified” and asking “Are you sure you want to run this software?” The warning is displayed because we cannot afford to pay a substantial yearly fee to Verisign for digital signatures to ‘identify’ our software. Please understand that by downloading our software from our website you are getting more proof that this is our software than you would get from a digital signature. 

NOTE Vista users you no longer have to be an "Administrator" to install or run Point-N-Click. However, you need to have "Administrator" Privileges to install Point-N-Click . If your account is a "Standard User", Vista will prompt you for an Administrator/Password to use while installing. If your account is already an "Administrator", you will simply be prompted to "Allow" the installation to continue.
