Bug Description

cannot be solved inside SikuliX, since all possible solutions need SikuliX to be run with admin privileges.

***** workaround

run Sikuli with administrator privileges (context menu)

see faq 1771

--------------------------------------------------------

tested on Win7 (32Bit and 64Bit)

A mmc window blocks any Java robot actions (this is the Java feature internally used to simulate the mouse actions), as long as the mmc window has focus.

This is the fact, no matter how you manage to get a mmc-window to the front.

So it is not possible to click() inside of an mmc window. It is even not possible to move the mouse, as long as mmc has focus.
