Method tap

ElementHandle.tap This method taps the element by performing the following steps: 1. Wait for [actionability](https://playwright.dev/python/docs/actionability) checks on the element, unless `force` option is set. 1. Scroll the element into view if needed. 1. Use `pag

        This method taps the element by performing the following steps:
        1. Wait for [actionability](https://playwright.dev/python/docs/actionability) checks on the element, unless `force` option is set.
        1. Scroll the element into view if needed.
        1. Use `page.touchscreen` to tap the center of the element, or the specified `position`.

        If the element is detached from the DOM at any moment during the action, this method throws.

        When all steps combined have not finished during the specified `timeout`, this method throws a `TimeoutError`.
        Passing zero timeout disables this.

        **NOTE** `elementHandle.tap()` requires that the `hasTouch` option of the browser context be set to true.

        Parameters
        ----------
        modifiers : Union[Sequence[Union["Alt", "Control", "ControlOrMeta", "Meta", "Shift"]], None]
            Modifier keys to press. Ensures that only these modifiers are pressed during the operation, and then restores
            current modifiers back. If not specified, currently pressed modifiers are used. "ControlOrMeta" resolves to
            "Control" on Windows and Linux and to "Meta" on macOS.
        position : Union[{x: float, y: float}, None]
            A point to use relative to the top-left corner of element padding box. If not specified, uses some visible point of
            the element.
        timeout : Union[float, None]
            Maximum time in milliseconds. Defaults to `30000` (30 seconds). Pass `0` to disable timeout. The default value can
            be changed by using the `browser_context.set_default_timeout()` or `page.set_default_timeout()` methods.
        force : Union[bool, None]
            Whether to bypass the [actionability](../actionability.md) checks. Defaults to `false`.
        no_wait_after : Union[bool, None]
            This option has no effect.
            Deprecated: This option has no effect.
        trial : Union[bool, None]
            When set, this method only performs the [actionability](../actionability.md) checks and skips the action. Defaults
            to `false`. Useful to wait until the element is ready for the action without performing it.
