Hi all,

I've been trying to emulate user scrolling on touch screens with no
luck.  In order to do this, I'm creating the associated Motion Events
that get called: Down - Move, Move, ... Move - Up.  I found this
sequence by attaching a TouchListener to a view and manually doing a
scroll in the emulator.  I am imitating this sequence with all the
parameters, but the scroll never happens in the screen.

Here's the code:

public void scroll() {

  long downTime = SystemClock.uptimeMillis();
  MotionEvent event;

  // Down
  event = MotionEvent.obtain(downTime, SystemClock.uptimeMillis(),
    MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN, 160.00002f, 180.0f,0.0f,0.0f,0,0.0f,0.0f,
0,0);
  s.dispatchTouchEvent(event);

  // Move
  event.setAction(MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE);
  event.setLocation(160.00002f, 175.0f);
  s.dispatchTouchEvent(event);

  event.setLocation(160.00002f, 158.0f);
  s.dispatchTouchEvent(event);

  event.setLocation(160.00002f, 142.0f);
  s.dispatchTouchEvent(event);

  event.setLocation(160.00002f, 138.0f);
  s.dispatchTouchEvent(event);

  event.setLocation(160.00002f, 131.0f);
  s.dispatchTouchEvent(event);

  event.setLocation(160.00002f, 129.0f);
  s.dispatchTouchEvent(event);

  // Up
  event.setAction(MotionEvent.ACTION_UP);
  event.setLocation(160.00002f, 129.0f);
  s.dispatchTouchEvent(event);
 }

In this code, I'm using the MotionEvent.obtain method:
public static MotionEvent obtain (long downTime, long eventTime, int
action, float x, float y, float pressure, float size, int metaState,
float xPrecision, float yPrecision, int deviceId, int edgeFlags)

>From the official Android documentation:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/MotionEvent.html#obtain(long,
long, int, float, float, float, float, int, float, float, int, int)

Thanks for your help!
