Here are the answers to some Frequently Asked Questions I have received via email as well as some questions I anticipate you will ask!

How do I use the batch delete function?

To use batch delete you need to line up the grid as you would normally, and then tick the "Click Accept after each click" checkbox. This will tell GridClicker that you will be using the delete tool when sending clicks, and GridClicker will try to hit the "Accept" button each time the confirmation dialog pops up.

GridClicker determines the location of the Accept button base on the location of the FarmVille window. You might have already noticed that an extra green dot has appeared when you tick the checkbox. Now drag the green dot to the top left corner of the FarmVille window, the blue rectangle should outline the FarmVille window exactly if this is done correctly. Hit Send Clicks and that's it! Make sure you have selected the delete tool before you send clicks though.

You can also use the slider bar to control how long GridClickers waits before clicking the Accept button. I have found 0.9 seconds works well on my computer but do experiment with this. You can use ESC to cancel the actions if it is not going according to plan!

I have moved one of the dots outside of the window. Help!

A: This problem is resolved in v0.3. But you can reset the locations of the dots by deleting the application settings file. Please note that this will restore the program to its factory default state and you will lose all other settings such as rows cols etc of GridClicker. To do this you need to be able to view hidden files with your Windows Explorer, and then delete the GLSoft folder located at:

C:\Documents and Settings\[Your UserName]\Local Settings\Application Data\GLSoft

Replace "Documents and Settings" with "Users" if you are on Vista.

Is there a Mac version?

Sorry, no. This program requires the MS .NET 3.0 platform, which currently isn't available on Mac OSX.

Can I stop the clicks before they have finished?

Yes!! This is now possible from v0.3, thanks to the suggestion made by Team Chronos! We can now pause the clicks by pressing the ECS key. Big thanks to Team Chronos for sending me the tip!

How do I make GridClicker window bigger?

On the bottom right corner of the window you will find some tiny stripes, you can resize the window by dragging those stripy things
