'Move mouse with javascript
I am trying to do simple mouse move with javascript but I am unable to do it and dont know what is wrong.
function doMove(){
let element = document.getElementById('root');
let eventMouseDown = new MouseEvent("mousedown", {
clientX: window.innerWidth/2,
clientY: window.innerHeight/2
});
let eventMouseMove = new MouseEvent("mousemove", {
clientX: (window.innerWidth/2)+50,
clientY: window.innerHeight/2
});
let eventMouseUp = new MouseEvent("mouseup", {
clientX: (window.innerWidth/2)+50,
clientY: window.innerHeight/2
});
element.dispatchEvent(eventMouseDown);
element.dispatchEvent(eventMouseMove);
element.dispatchEvent(eventMouseUp);
}
First I put mouse down then move and then realease which should simulate me moving with mouse on map for example. How can I make it work?

You can't move mouse using JavaScript in the website. Imagine that you are opening a website and it takes control over your mouse.
