Hi, I am unable to press on numpad and also unable to scroll down when trying automation in java code. (Java, server side appium)

I have tried these after searching online but does not work for me.

Numpad

[//wd.pressKey](https://wd.pressKey)(new KeyEvent(AndroidKey.DIGIT\_0));

[//wd.findElement](https://wd.findElement)(MobileBy.AndroidUIAutomator(“new UiSelector().text("1")”)).click();

[//wd.pressKeyCode](https://wd.pressKeyCode)(8);

[//wd.pressKey](https://wd.pressKey)(new KeyEvent(AndroidKey.NUMPAD\_1));

Scroll down

//String targetText = “Measurements”;

[//wd.findElementByAndroidUIAutomator](https://wd.findElementByAndroidUIAutomator)(“new UiScrollable(new UiSelector().scrollable(true).instance(0)).scrollIntoView(new UiSelector().textContains("”+targetText+“").instance(0))”);));

Thank you.

Suggested approach is:

final var finger = new PointerInput(PointerInput.Kind.TOUCH, “finger”);

var start = new Point(188, 563);

var end = new Point (198, 264);

var swipe = new Sequence(finger, 1); swipe.addAction(finger.createPointerMove(Duration.ofMillis(0), PointerInput.Origin.viewport(), start.getX(), start.getY())); swipe.addAction(finger.createPointerDown(PointerInput.MouseButton.LEFT.asArg())); swipe.addAction(finger.createPointerMove(Duration.ofMillis(1000), PointerInput.Origin.viewport(), end.getX(), end.getY())); swipe.addAction(finger.createPointerUp(PointerInput.MouseButton.LEFT.asArg()));

driver.perform(Arrays.asList(swipe));
