Point and click can be used with any number of input devices varying from mouses, touch pads, trackpoint, joysticks, scroll buttons, and roller balls. An example of point and click is in hypermedia, where users click on hyperlinks to navigate from document to document. Point and click are the actions of a computer user moving a pointer to a certain location on a screen ( pointing) and then pressing a button on a mouse, usually the left button ( click), or other pointing device. For the genre of video game, see Adventure game § Point-and-click adventure games.
