Hi!
I have a problem with Dolphin Browser when trying to click on "settings" (using action Control UI, click x,y) - there become new little window with list of settings and using click(x,y) again - it clicks on background but not on new layer with settings
Is there any way to click on this new layer generated by Dolphin???
Thanks.

Hi,
What kind of setting/window/layer are you trying to click? Could you post a screenshot or describe the steps to reach the setting screen you want to modify so I can try to reproduce?
Did you add sleep-functions between the click actions to ensure that the browser has enough time to execute the action and finish the animations.
A script like this works on my device:
click(84, 268);
sleep(1000);
click("Settings");
sleep(1000);
click("Accounts & Data");
Regards,
Martin

Hi!
Thanks for answer
It clicks on icon in upper right corner of Dolphin - then it creates windnow with name "Control Panel" - and than nothing happens. I used the same script as you posted (and used more time for sleep) also I tried to use (x,y) instead of "Settings" and it clicked on icon wich was in background (there was link to Wiki by default). My device with Android 4.2.2

Hi,
You are probably using a tablet or a device with a large screen. It seems that Dolphin shows an alternate menu on tablets that looks like a popup/dropdown window. Dolphin does not provide the required information that allows Control UI to work in this menu. On a phone (Nexus 5) Dolphin shows a navigation drawer on the left side of the screen that provides the necessary information about the UI structure.
You probably have to resort to a root command to simulate a touch on this location, something like Execute Root Command: input tap 790 910 (coordinates for a Nexus 7 in portrait mode, other devices with other screen sizes will require other coordinates). You can find the coordinate by turning on Pointer location in Settings->Developer options.
Regards,
Martin

You are right - it's a tablet

But another problem now - how to root my device, could you give any universal method?
May be there is another way - without root? Launch Dolphin right in "setting" menu without default screen?
PS just found another option - using gestures, but does Automagic allow to draw gestures at all? How to create flow for such action?

Unfortunately, there's no universal method to root a device and I can not help you with rooting since it's too risky, can go wrong and might void the warranty.
A google search with the exact device model and "root" should usually turn up some tutorials, but use at your own risk.
Dolphin does not provide a way to directly launch the settings screen for external apps and drawing gestures/simulating touch screen input also requires a rooted device (even with a rooted device, it's difficult to simulate a complex gesture).

I see
I tried everythings but I cant get in "settings"

I can click every button in this menu but cant click on the "control panel" because it is invisible for Automagic

And on my phone it works OK too but not on tablet. It really blows my brain. And I dont want risk and root device.
May I believe that such popups will be accessable for Automagic in next versions?
Thanks.

No sorry, the information about this popup window is not available to Automagic and there's no way to change or fix it in Automagic. The developers of the Dolphin browser would have to change the way this popup window is implemented to allow Automagic to see and click the menu entries.
