Not able to perform horizontal swipe - 1.7.2

public boolean swipeImages()
{
try

String pageString= pageIndicator.getAttribute(“value”);
int length = pageString.length();
String count_string= pageString.substring(length-2, length).trim();

for (int i=1; i<=count; i++){

	  JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
	  HashMap<String, String> scrollObject = new HashMap<String, String>();
	  scrollObject.put("direction", "right");

Hi @Rathan_G,

Above line of code is incorrect.The constructor of TouchAction is only accept driver as parameter.

Incorrect:
TouchAction action =new TouchAction(getDriver().press(point(startx,starty))…)

Correct:
TouchAction action =new TouchAction(getDriver()).press(point(startx,starty)).moveTo.…

or

TouchAction action =new TouchAction(getDriver());
action.press(point(startx,starty)).moveTo.…

if u are using java client 5.0.4 you can use below code

public void swipeRightToLeft() {
Dimension size = webDriver.manage().window().getSize();
int startx = (int) (size.width *0.94);
int endx = (int) (size.width *0.24);
int starty = size.height / 2;
int finalendx = startx-endx;
int endy = 0;
(new TouchAction(webDriver)).press(startx,starty).moveTo(-finalendx,endy).release().perform();
}

@Rathan_G if you are using appium 1.7.2 and java client 6.0.0 beta5, u have to use absolute coordinates for 1.7.2

public void swipeRightToLeft() {
//getDriver().manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
Dimension size = getDriver().manage().window().getSize();
System.out.println(size);

int startx = (int) (size.width *0.94);
int endx = (int) (size.width *0.24);
int starty = size.height / 2;
int finalendx = startx-endx;
int endy = 0;

TouchAction actions = new TouchAction(getDriver());
actions.press(point(startx,starty)).waitAction(waitOptions(Duration.ofMillis(2000))).moveTo(point(-finalendx,endy)).release().perform();
}

if you use above code you may need to import below lines.

import java.time.Duration;
import static io.appium.java_client.touch.offset.PointOption.point;
import static io.appium.java_client.touch.WaitOptions.waitOptions;

yes, it’s required here if you use appium 1.7.2

u need to use -ve sign
