Programatically Trigger seriesClick

[Collin]

Is there a way to programatically trigger the click event on a chart series?  I'm trying to setup a unit test to test the seriesClick function and haven't been able to see anything.  In a somewhat desperate attempt I tried to trigger the click event on everything to see if I got something to trigger the event but it appeared as though nothing hit it; I have some console output as soon as the function runs. I used this line of code to try to execute the event.

$('*').each(function(){

    $(this).click();

});

Hello,

The chart uses the mousedown and mouseup events instead of click. The event can triggered on a particular element as in the snippet below:

element.mousedown().mouseup();

Thank you for that however it appears as though IE 10 and 11 don't support this..or aren't responding to it as kendo is expecting?

Hello again,

Internet Explorer 10 and 11 use pointer events - in IE 10 "MSPointerDown" and "MSPointerUp":

element.trigger(jQuery.Event("MSPointerDown", { originalEvent: {} }))
    .trigger(jQuery.Event("MSPointerUp", { originalEvent: {} }));

and in IE 11 "pointerdown" and "pointerup":

element.trigger(jQuery.Event("pointerdown", { originalEvent: {} }))
    .trigger(jQuery.Event("pointerup", { originalEvent: {} }));

Regards,

This worked and fortunately it doesn't trigger the events for Chrome, firefox and IE9. Thanks a bunch!
