# ClickEvent

> This event is sent when the left mouse button is clicked.

## Definition

* **Type:** Class
* **Namespace:** [UnityEngine.UIElements](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityengine/uielements.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEngine.UIElementsModule
* **Inherits from:** [PointerEventBase\<ClickEvent>](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityengine/uielements/pointereventbase1.md)
* **Implements:** [IDisposable](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.idisposable), [IPointerEvent](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityengine/uielements/ipointerevent.md)

```csharp
public sealed class ClickEvent : PointerEventBase<ClickEvent>, IDisposable, IPointerEvent
```

## Remarks

A click consists of a mouse down event followed by a mouse up event on the same VisualElement. The mouse might move between the two events but the move is ignored as long as the mouse down and mouse up events occur on the same VisualElement.

A ClickEvent uses the default pointer event propagation path: it trickles down, bubbles up and can be cancelled. Disabled elements won't receive this event by default.

See [PointerEventBase\<T>](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityengine/uielements/pointereventbase1.md) to see how ClickEvent relates to other pointer events.
