Usage
The Clicked event occurs when the user presses the mouse button. The Clicked event can occur during a double-click, in addition to the DoubleClicked event.
In addition to the Clicked event, ItemChanging and ItemChanged events can occur when the user clicks on an item that does not already have focus. BeginLabelEdit can occur when the user clicks on a label of an item that has focus.
Using the ItemActivate event for ListView controls
You can use the ItemActivate event (with the OneClickActivate property set to true) instead of the Clicked event for ListView controls.
Examples
This code changes the label of the item the user clicks to uppercase:
IF index = -1 THEN RETURN 0 This.GetItem(index, llvi_current) llvi_current.Label = Upper(llvi_current.Label) This.SetItem(index, llvi_current) RETURN 0

In addition to the Clicked event, the SelectionChanging and SelectionChanged events can occur when the user clicks on a tab page label. If the user presses an arrow key to change tab pages, the Key event occurs instead of Clicked before SelectionChanging and SelectionChanged.

flags |
UnsignedLong by value (the modifier keys and mouse buttons that are pressed). Values are:
In the Clicked event for windows, the left mouse button is being released, so 1 is not summed in the value of flags. For an explanation of flags, see Syntax 2 of MouseMove. |

|
ypos |

The Clicked event occurs when the user presses the mouse button down in progress bars and when the user releases the mouse button in windows.
If the user clicks on a control or menu in a window, that object (rather than the window) gets a Clicked event. No Clicked event occurs when the user clicks the window's title bar.
When the user clicks on a window, the window's MouseDown and MouseUp events also occur.
When the user clicks on a visible disabled control or an invisible enabled control, the window gets a Clicked event.
Examples
If the user clicks in the upper left corner of the window, this code sets focus to the button cb_clear:
IF (xpos <= 600 AND ypos <= 600) THEN cb_clear.SetFocus( ) END IF
