Getting started
The main window
The window has a sidebar on the left and one screen at a time on the right.
Home
ClickTray opens on its home screen: the four utilities as cards, each with a one-line description. Click ClickTray at the top of the sidebar to come back to it.
Utilities
The Utilities group lists the four tools this build ships, in a fixed order: Auto Clicker, Key Presser, Macro Recorder, Stay Awake. Each opens its own panel. A utility switched off in Settings disappears from this list; its card stays on the home screen, dimmed, reading Turned off — enable it in Settings.
System
Below the utilities sits the System group:
-
Runs — every setup you have started, newest first, ready to load again. See Runs and saved setups.
-
Settings — every preference in the app. See Settings.
-
Help opens this manual in your browser, and Feedback sends a note to the team.
The sidebar footer shows the installed version, the bandwidth-sharing state, the session state (No session running, Running with its rate, or Paused) and, while one is in progress, the update — Checking for updates…, the download percentage, or Restart to update.
The panels
Every utility panel has the same shape, and the order is deliberate:
- The run control comes first. Start and Stop are at the top of the panel, never buried below a form, so Stop is never something to hunt for. (Auto Clicker's guided setup puts Start clicking on its final Review step instead; the moment a run starts, Stop moves to the top.)
- The stop hint sits under it. ClickTray asks Windows which shortcut it actually holds and prints only that — the Start button reads, for example, · F6 stops it. If the shortcut is not registered, an amber warning takes its place instead; read Stopping a session.
- Then the settings, and a live status line once something is running.
None of the four produces a file, so there is no job queue, no progress bar and no output folder anywhere in this app.
What usually goes wrong
The window vanished. Closing the window hides ClickTray to the tray rather than quitting it — deliberately, because a session has to outlive the window to be any use. Click the tray icon to bring it back, or use Open ClickTray on its menu.
A utility shows "Bandwidth sharing is off" instead of its panel. The utilities and the Runs screen need sharing to be on. The notice has an Open Settings button — see How ClickTray is funded.
