English term or phrase: click and hold down on
I went to check these few terms with Spanish speakers from Spain, as I am not sure if they use the same terminology as Lat.Am. spanish.

Click on... = haga clic en, pulse o otra cosa?

'Hold down' the mouse button = mantiene sujetado?

crosshair = retículo?

This is to do with a Windows application and need specifically terminology from SPAIN.
Gracias

hacer click, mantener


Explanation:
Ambos términos son correctos, pero el tiempo verbal del segundo no es correcto: yo diría "mantenga". En cualquier caso, no es sujeto, sino presionado o apretado.

Espero te sea de utilidad.
