Control UI issue I'm running into

[husky]

Hello,

ADDENDUM: After some more test, I figured out that CHECK + CLICK works as expected.
Not sure what CHECK does. Is it possible am explanation of what CHECK does in practical terms. Thanks.

I have an Automagic shortcut that points to a flow that should turn on/off the GPS in the settings by "pressing" the button from inside the Control UI.

When I run the flow directly from Automagic editor it works fine.

Without changing anything I run the flow directly from the shortcut. It simply does not work.

I tried options like:
1. Coordinates using developers option coordinates.
2. Coordinates as shown after CLICKING the text OFF or ON depending on what is the current status for the GPS.
3. CLICK(coord x, coord y) where x,y is the button itself.
4. Changed the numbers of seconds before going back();
5. I also tried using GESTURE instead of Info. Still not doing it.
6. Ran out of debugging ideas.

I simply do not understand why clicking the shortcut the flow stops setting the GPS status.
Note: This is being run on a Smasung Galaxy Tab S3.
Could be a Samsung issue?

Thak You for any ideas.

Hi,

Clicking a shortcut on the launcher temporarily "shows" an invisible screen which likely has side effects on the entire accessibility features of Android. Using an action 'Sleep: 2s' before executing the action Control UI might fix the issue.
Check/uncheck are functions used to switch checkboxes to the desired state which is often better than to use click that just toggles the state back and forth. However the control element on screen has to support the check/uncheck-functions, otherwise the functions don't have any effect.

Hello Martin,

I aimed at the dog and ended up shooting my own foot. I thought the Check was the "solution".

I'll place a 2 second sleep between the Launch and the Control UI.

Best Regards
