Mouse
Mouse.release()
Description
Sends a message that a previously pressed button (invoked through Mouse.press()) is released. Mouse.release() defaults to the left button.
WARNING: When you use the Mouse.release() command, the Arduino takes over your mouse! Make sure you have control before you use the command. A pushbutton to toggle the mouse control state is effective.
