Hi. I am a beginner. I found how to run a certain application. But is it possible to run a certain command in this application? I need to push a button. Thanks for advice.

Yes macrodroid can push a button for you so long as it is either in a consistent place or it can recognize the text.

Look into the Action UI Interactions which can be found under the Device Actions category. Please note though that it will require macrodroid be assigned special permissions to make it work.

Hi. Thank you for your response. ui interactions I turned on. But how do I set an action to push a button in a specific application? I have a remote control gate in the house. There is an application with 4 controller buttons. And I need one of them to squeeze. so far I've only been able to run that application.

First you need to launch the application and wait a period of time for it to fully open (200ms or more). Then you set up a ui interaction of a click. One of the options macrodroid will give you is to navigate to the app, tell macrodroid you are ready by selecting the menu item it gives you and then pressing the button you want automated.

Even though I try to follow the instructions, I can't get IU interaction set up? I use click and Identify in app.

You want to reset them to 0 ? You could use a gesture or a click on where the button are at 0.
It's a hearing aid app. Claus is a button that I made and saved. Unfortunately, it sometimes happens that the hearing aid goes to another setting called automatic, which is not my setting. That's why I want to activate Claus, which is my setting, at intervals.

Maybe with X, Y location ? Try something like your screen width - 50 for X and 100 for Y.
Thanks for making suggestions. It may surprise me that the program will not accept the methods already tried.
For your information, these Phonak hearing aids are free, provided by the Danish state to people who demonstrably need them. There is a newer version of Phonak which does not leave the selected keystroke. This newer version is only available by private purchase. And it is very expensive. What a shame I can't get Macrodroid to work.

I guess it's on a canvas, as games are not the only to be drawn on canvas.

Yes, there is probably not much to do about that. I believe that the trials that have been tried would work if the manufacturer had accepted this. But of course it can be based on commercial interests.
