A click action allows you to interact with an object with a single left click. In addition, each click action has a special cursor indicating what it does. This makes using objects easier, especially for new Residents. For example, if you set a box to the Buy object click action, a customer will see a "$" cursor as they hover it. They can then purchase it by clicking once, then clicking again to confirm the purchase.

You can easily see all the available click actions in a few, well, clicks:

1. Right-click an object and select Edit from the pie menu.
2. Click the General tab, if it isn't already selected.
3. Look under When Left-Clicked.

Click action types

Touch/grab (default)

• No special click action is used.
• If the object is scripted, it responds to what it's programmed to do when touched (clicked on).
• "Grab" means if you hold down Ctrl (PC) or Cmd (Mac), the cursor changes to a hand, and you can move objects you have permission to.

Sit on object

• The cursor changes to a chair when you hover over the object.
• When clicked, your avatar sits on it (or tries to).
• The same result as right-clicking the object and selecting Sit Here.
• This also makes it easier to sit on an object instead of right-clicking and choosing Sit Here repeatedly, which tends to result in "No room to sit here..." error messages on narrow and odd-shaped objects.

Buy object

• This requires the object to be set for sale.
• The cursor changes to a "$" when you hover over the object.
• When clicked, a Buy window appears, then you can purchase
• The same result as right-clicking the object and selecting Buy.

Pay object

• This requires a script in the contents to work, and is a common alternative to Buy object when choose-your-own-price flexibility, stats tracking, and other options are needed.
• The cursor changes to a stack of coins when you hover over the object. When clicked, a pay window appears
• The same result as right-clicking the object and selecting Pay....

Open

• You must own the object and it must have contents to open it.
• This is very useful if you sell content which is intended to be packaged and "unwrapped" from boxes.
• The cursor changes to an open box when you hover the object. When clicked, an Object Contents window appears.
• The same result as right-clicking the object and selecting Open.

Play parcel media

• The same result as clicking the Play button on your toolbar, only more immersive since it's inworld.
• The same result as
