MATLAB: Can I control mouse cursor with using MATLAB

controlmouse

I'd like to control mouse cursor but I'm not sure even I can do it through MATLAB. If you can, will you tell me the functions to do it, examples of using them and MATLAB version contains those functions?

If you are moving it for use within MATLAB, you can set the root CurrentPoint property.

If you are moving it for use with other applications, see the Java Robot class.

To control the behavior of a right-click action when ZOOM is active change the property ‘rightclickaction’ of the zoom mode object.
