Adb shell input drag from a source to a target and keep pressed

Question

I need to simulate this scenario with adb, drag from a srouce point to a target point and keep pressed until an event happens.

how can I write the adb shell command? thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Several ways-

1. Use getevent and sendeventif coordinates wont change:-

Record your drag event with adb shell getevent and play with adb shell sendevent. Refrer this link.

2. Use uiautomator if drag co-ordinates are not constant

create a uiautomator jar which accepts your drag coordinates from command line and run via adb shell.
