As is in the title, I have to catch or detect a mouse click event. But the mouse event is not LabVIEW's one.
For example, I'd like to start measurement when a user clicks a mouse right button three times in another window program.
Of course, since I'm using not LabVIEW but another program, LabVIEW should be running in background process.

Look at the Input Device Control VIs. You can create a simple loop that acquires mouse input information (caution: do not create a Greedy Loop). One of the outputs of that VI will tell you what buttons were pressed.

Thank you for your useful answer. I didn't know that LabVIEW is still working even when it is not under spotlight.
I can settle my problem with your advice. ^.^
Good luck to you.
