This function performs a mouse press. All the parameters are optional excepting that either both or neither of the coordinates must be present.

If x and y coordinates are given, the press takes place at those coordinates, either relative to the objectOrName object if one is specified, or relative to the current screen otherwise. If no coordinates are given the press takes place on the middle of the objectOrName object if one is specified, or wherever the mouse happens to be otherwise.

By default MouseButton.LeftButton is used, but this can be changed by specifying the optional mouseButton argument. Similarly a default modifier state of no modifiers is used, but this can be changed by specifying the modifierState argument. See Windows Convenience Function Parameters for which values are valid for the mouseButton argument and for the modifierState argument.
