How to simulate a button click in swift (for MAC OSX)

I'm making a program for Mac and I need to find a way to" click " a button from a code.

I'm trying to put this code on another button and have already tried this in the following 3 Ways:

func mouseDown(_ NSButton1: NSEvent) { }

func performClick(_ NSButton1: NSEvent) { }

Button1.sendActionsForControlEvents(NSControlEvents.TouchUpInside)

Does anyone know how to do this?

Hello! If you want to define what will happen to a button after you click it, just make connect the Storyboard button to the code, choose the type of connection as Action. Thus, a new function will be created, for example:

@IBAction func sampleFunction(sender: AnyObject) {
}

Now, inside the brackets, write the actions you want. For example:

@IBAction func sampleFunction(sender: AnyObject) {
    print("Você clicou em mim!!")
}

In this case, every time you click the button, the string " you clicked on me!"will be" printed " in XCode.
