If someone has figured it out please share.

I’ve searching all over the net.

TouchAction ta = new TouchAction(d); //create object
ta.press(startx, starty).waitAction(dur).moveTo(endx, endy).release(); //press, wait, moveTo, release
ta.perform(); //actually performs the action.

you can use some code such as this for directions, and to get the x/y coordinates of an element.

            int endx = 0;
	int endy = 0;
	int width = getAppWidth(d);
	int height = getAppHeight(d);
	Duration dur = Duration.ofSeconds(duration);

	switch (direction) {
	case UP:
		endx = 0;
		int toY = height - starty;
		endy = (toY - starty) * swipeFactor;
		break;
	case RIGHT:
		endx = (width - startx) * swipeFactor;
		endy = 0;
		break;
	case DOWN:
		endx = 0;
		endy = (height - starty) * swipeFactor;
		break;
	case LEFT:
		int toX = width - startx;
		endx = (toX - startx) * swipeFactor;
		endy = 0;
		break;
	}

OR if you have an element named item…

int x = item.getLocation().getX();
int y = item.getLocation().getY();
int w = item.getSize().getWidth();
int h = item.getSize().getHeight();
int tenthX = (w / 10); // Add X after calculation
int tenthY = (h / 10); // Add Y after calculation
int centerX = tenthX * 5 + x;
int centerY = tenthY * 5 + y;
// The parts we’re going to figure out
int startX = centerX;
int startY = centerY;
int endX = centerX;
int endY = centerY;
switch (direction) {
case UP:
startX = centerX;
startY = (tenthY * 8) + y;
endX = centerX;
endY = tenthY + y;
break;
case RIGHT:
startX = tenthX + x;
startY = centerY;
endX = (tenthX * 8) + x;
endY = centerY;
break;
case DOWN:
startX = centerX;
startY = tenthY + y;
endX = centerX;
endY = (tenthY * 8) + y;
break;
case LEFT:
startX = (tenthX * 8) + x;
startY = centerY;
endX = tenthX + x;
endY = centerY;
break;

Appium server side provides abilities to emulate touch actions. It is possible construct single, complex and multiple touch actions.
 
# How to use a single touch action

```java
import io.appium.java_client.TouchAction;

...
//tap
new TouchAction(driver)
                .tap(driver
                .findElementById("io.appium.android.apis:id/start")).perform();
```

# How to construct complex actions

```java
import io.appium.java_client.TouchAction;

Thank you very much for the fast and detailed response.

However, it doesn’t seem to work for me.

I am facing a strange behavior.

If I run the following code :

new TouchAction(driver).press(300,75).moveTo(0,-50).release().perform()

Then It swipes up (as expected).

But then, if I run the following code (with the minor changes):

new TouchAction(driver).press(300,75).moveTo(-50,0).release().perform()

It just clicks on the object in (300,75) and won’t swipe.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Sigh, I’m actually getting the same bugs as well. Swiping left and right doesn’t seem to work.

@jlipps Hi,
Do you guys have any solution for it?

Telmo_Cardoso 2017-10-04 06:52:55 UTC #6

Are you in iOS? If yes, then place the duration to 0.

new TouchAction(driver).press( , ).waitAction(Duration.ofMillis(0)).moveTo( , ).release().perform();

BB 2017-10-08 13:56:45 UTC #7

I am on iOS.

Tried your suggestion but it still won’t work.

Are you sure about the java-client version?

TouchAction touchAction = new TouchAction(getDriver());
size = getDriver().manage().window().getSize();
System.out.println(size);
int startx = (int) (size.width * 0.5);
int endx =(int) (size.width * 0.2);
int starty = (int)(size.height0.8);
int endy = (int)(size.height0.2);
getDriver().swipe(startx, starty, startx, endy, 250);

This i used for swiping pages of a ebook

Hi , which java-client are you using ? 5?

BB 2017-10-09 12:57:04 UTC #10

@Kishore_v
Did you used it with java-client 5.0.3 ?
If so, what driver do you use?

Kishore_v 2017-10-09 13:22:05 UTC #11

I am using java client 3.2.0
appium version 1.7.1
used iOS driver, it swipes from right to left… testtes with iOS 11, in iphone 6s plus

BB 2017-10-09 13:23:42 UTC #12

My question regarded java-client 5.0.3.

Thanks.

rickesnick 2017-10-09 14:12:09 UTC #13

You can still use swipe with 5.0.3.
According to the github changelog they deprecated appiumdriver #swipe and mobileElement#swipe. They did not deprecate iOSDriver #swipe.
So tldr you can use swipe as before if you use iOSDriver, which is the driver you should use unless I have missed something

BB 2017-10-09 14:42:28 UTC #14

They did deprecate it on IOSDriver, unfortunately.

@Aleksei
Do you have any clue about it?

Telmo_Cardoso 2017-10-09 14:58:31 UTC #15

Please show the code you are running and what happens (it clicks on the element instead of swiping?)

BB 2017-10-09 16:55:56 UTC #16

If I run the following code :

new TouchAction(driver).press(300,75).moveTo(0,-50).release().perform()

Telmo_Cardoso 2017-10-09 18:57:39 UTC #17

have you tried?

new TouchAction(driver).press(300,75).waitAction(Duration.ofMillis(0)).moveTo(-50,0).release().perform()

krishim69 2017-11-28 15:26:18 UTC #18

you can try this as well it should works as expected :
new TouchAction(item.initTest.Driver).press((int)(size.width / 13), (int) (size.height * 0.60)).waitAction(Duration.ofMillis(4000)).moveTo((int)(size.width / 13),(int) (size.height * (-0.30))).release().perform();

ngoccuong11789 2018-11-16 10:08:08 UTC #19

This code work to me :
Thread.sleep(3000);
new TouchAction(driver).press(PointOption.point(500, 596)).waitAction(WaitOptions.waitOptions(Duration.ofMillis(1000))).
moveTo(PointOption.point(518, 478)).release().perform();
