I have followed the reference from the above discussion but nothing got at the o/p on the real device, Please help.

Code for swipe from right to left-

Dimension size=driver.manage().window().getSize();
System.out.println(size);
int startx= (int)(size.width0.70);
int endx= (int)(size.width0.30);
int starty=size.height/2;
long duration=0;
int y=0;
new TouchAction(driver).press(startx, y).waitAction(Duration.ofMillis(duration)).moveTo(endx, y).release().perform();

I’m getting the "true’ status in the Logs, but nothing is implementing on the real device-

As we can see in the logs x value changes from 503 to 216 but nothing is happening on the real device

[Telmo_Cardoso]

Have you tried with a duration bigger than 0ms?

[Appium_Learner]

Hi Telmo can you tell me how to perfomed flick(left or right) operation?

[Al_Imran]

Hi @Telmo_Cardoso

In Java Client: 5.x.x, it’s working fine but while I have updated to 6.1.0 it’s not working and showing error, how I can resolve please help me!

public static void swipeHorizontal(AppiumDriver driver, double startPercentage, double finalPercentage, double anchorPercentage, int duration) throws Exception {
        Dimension size = driver.manage().window().getSize();
        int anchor = (int) (size.height * anchorPercentage);
        int startPoint = (int) (size.width * startPercentage);
        int endPoint = (int) (size.width * finalPercentage);
        new TouchAction(driver).press(startPoint, anchor).waitAction(Duration.ofMillis(duration)).moveTo(endPoint, anchor).release().perform();
    }

[Telmo_Cardoso]

Those methods were removed.Try to adapt your code to the new methods available.

For instance:

void swipeCoordinates(AppiumDriver driver, int startX, int startY, int endX, int endY, int duration) throws Exception {
    new TouchAction(driver).press(point(startX, startY)).waitAction(waitOptions(Duration.ofMillis(duration)))
            .moveTo(point(endX, endY)).release().perform();
}

This works for me.

public void swipeHorizontal(int duration, String dragMeString) throws Exception {
WebElement dragMe = getElementByProperty(dragMeString);
new TouchAction(driver)
.press(PointOption.point(dragMe.getLocation().getX() + (dragMe.getSize().width - 20),
dragMe.getLocation().getY() + (dragMe.getSize().height / 2)))
.waitAction(WaitOptions.waitOptions(Duration.ofMillis(duration)))
.moveTo(PointOption.point(dragMe.getLocation().getX(),
dragMe.getLocation().getY() + (dragMe.getSize().height / 2)))
.release().perform();
}

[SriramRajendranR]

press(point

This should work

Dimension size = driver.manage().window().getSize();
System.out.println(size.height+“height”);
System.out.println(size.width+“width”);
System.out.println(size);
int startPoint = (int) (size.width * 0.99);
int endPoint = (int) (size.width * 0.15);
int ScreenPlace =(int) (size.height0.40);
int y=(int)size.height20;

       TouchAction ts = new TouchAction(driver);
       for(int i=0;i<=3;i++) {
       ts.press(PointOption.point(startPoint,ScreenPlace ))
  	  .waitAction(WaitOptions.waitOptions(Duration.ofMillis(1000)))
  	  .moveTo(PointOption.point(endPoint,ScreenPlace )).release().perform();
