Xpresser

Click and drag?

Asked by Molly Brinkley

Is there any way to emulate a click and drag scenario? Is that a future plan?

Ever since the Android SDK updated the only way to answer a phone call is with a click and drag on the screen, but not a regular button (as I was doing before with graphic scripting).

Is there a feature for this? Maybe customizing in the .ini file or something? click this and drag it "x" pixels to the right or left?

I didn't see anything specifically mentioned about click and drags, and
I didn't see a blueprint for anything like that, so I wasn't certain if it was do-able or not.

Just a thought.
Thanks!

I've created a bug for the feature.

And implemented it (I haven't tested it yet) here:
https://code.launchpad.net/~chris.gagnon/xpresser/xpresser-with-emulate-click-and-drag

However making Xpresser work in Android will require a rewrite of how the screenshot is taken and how clicks/keypresses are generated. It currently uses Gdk and pyatspi

Can you help with this problem?
