Uiautomator bounds to coordinates using adb












0















I have currently an issue i am using UIautomator to pull the xml file and i try to find a button by the text writen then try to stimulate the click using adb. But I am unable to make the right conversion of bounds to x and y coordinates.
This is the code i am using to grab the xml file.



adb shell uiautomator dump && adb pull /sdcard/window_dump.xml $TMPDIR


Here the is the code i am using to convert bounds to coordinates the text in the box is : Signaler.



coords=$(perl -ne 'printf "%d %dn", ($1)/2, ($3)/2 if /text="Signaler"[^>]*bounds="[(d+),(d+)][(d+),(d+)]"/' $TMPDIR/window_dump.xml)


What am I doing wrong Please ?
