[Android] Vertical scroll is not working

The problem

I upgraded appium version from 1.6.5 to 1.7.0 & node version to 8.5.0, after which I find that the scroll is not working for android.

Note: Initially with 1.6.5, it was working. But after upgrading 1.7.0 and reverting to 1.6.5, android scroll stopped working. But it working for IOS.

If anyone could advise, that’ll be really helpful.

Thanks, Brad

Code To Reproduce Issue [ Good To Have ]

Capabilities are given below function AppiumDriver setUp(url) { capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.DEVICE_NAME,"emulator-5554"); capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_NAME,"android"); capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_VERSION,"7.1.1"); capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP, appForAndroid.getAbsolutePath()); capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.NEW_COMMAND_TIMEOUT, 30); capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM, "android"); capabilities.setCapability("noReset", true); androidDriver = new AndroidDriver<>(url, capabilities); androidDriver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS); return androidDriver; Code for scrolling down

public void scrollScreenToEnd(AppiumDriver driver, Integer relativeYPositionOfPreviousField) { TouchAction swipe = new TouchAction(driver).press(0, relativeYPositionOfPreviousField).waitAction(Duration.ofSeconds(3)).moveTo(0, relativeYPositionOfPreviousField - 100).release(); swipe.perform(); }

i would say this is still a bug for appium, what you found is a workaround

Thanks @lanzelot1989, you made my day. I’ve found the issue. The issue was about the value that was set for x co-ordinate wasn’t working. But it was working earlier with appium 1.6.5. Not sure why this is not working for android now. But if I mention size.Width - 10, it works good. Closing this now.
