drag + dropAt not picked up

--- The first thing
to try, if keyboard and mouse actions do not work as expected, is to insert some short wait()'s around the actions. This is because for some applications the actions come to fast one after another, to accept them (typical situation with type())

in your case:
drag(start); wait(0.3) # try out the min value needed

--- The second thing
(if first does not help) is to switch to the native methods mouseDown, mouseUp, mouseMove and split the drag-drop into drag - steps of mouseMove along a given or calculated path - drop. If you need this more often, make a def().
(If need help on how to, just come back)

It did thanks, but now i have a new question LOL

no LOL.
That's normal: each discovery raises many new questions (and opportunities ;-)

Your question?

I have the same problem and none of RaiMan suggestions works.

My scripts:

(1)
drag(Location(146, 365)
wait(2)
dropAt(Location(146, 265)

(2)
click(Location(146, 365)
mouseDown(Button.LEFT)
wait(2)
mouseMove(Location(146, 265))
wait(2)
mouseUp(Button.LEFT)

I can see that mouse pointer is moving in the right direction. But it seems to be, that the drag and mouseDown function does not work.
The functions working fine with a scrollbar in a browser.

I'm running an app on an iPhone emulator too.

Any further suggestions?

thanks
Markus

@Markus

Does your emulator accept normal click() actions and reacts as expected?

@RaiMan

yes it does.

ok, the you have to try the "along a path method" (background: the mousemove is to fast for your app):

the mouse picks up and moves stepwise along a path between start and end, where it drops.

lets make a def() for that:

def myDragDrop(end, start=None, step=10, t=0):
 if not start: start = Env.getMouseLocation()
 else: mouseMove(start); wait(0.5)
 (sX, sY) = start.x, start.y; (eX, eY) = end.x, end.y
 stX = int(abs(eX-1-sX)/step)
 stY = int(abs(eY-1-sY)/step)
 steps=max(stX, stY)
 stX = int((eX-1-sX)/steps)
 stY = int((eY-1-sY)/steps)
 sX += stX; sY += stY
 mouseDown(Button.LEFT); wait(0.5)
 for i in range(steps):
  mouseMove(Location(sX, sY))
  wait(t)
  sX += stX; sY += stY
 mouseMove(end)
 mouseUp()

usages:
--- mouse already at start: (e.g. hover(someImage))
myDragDrop(to) # to has to be a Location object

--- mouse should be moved to start:
myDragDrop(to, start=Location(someX, someY))

--- use another stepping
myDragDrop(to, step=50) # maximum move 50 pixels each step

--- wait after each move
myDragDrop(to, t=0.2) # waits 0.2 seconds after each move

Heureka!

it works! Thanks a lot!
