I can't see the selected Elements on the Appium Inspector

The problem

I've tried to do a simple run on calculator to inspect it for element, so i click on the numbers but at the "Selected Elements" it show me nothing.

Environment

• Appium version 1.18.3:
• Desktop Windows 10 Pro

Details

I start Windows Application Driver, i am opening a new sess ion from Appium, with remote host 0.0.0.0 and the capabilities:{ "platformName": "Windows", "deviceName": "WindowsPC", "app": "Microsoft.WindowsCalculator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App" } When i start session it open the calculator and the session itself but it won't show to me the elements when o click on them. Is like the calculator is only a picture. When i want to tap on the calculator by the coordinates i get the error: "Call to 'tap' failed [performTouchAction([{"action":"tap","options":{"x":261,"y":284}}])] Error response status: 100, Selenium error: Missing Command Parameter: element"

I hope i was explicitly, if not please ask me more details, because i am the beggining with this app. https://www.loom.com/share/c240f3c1f73c450a806b86c5f56ef2db

Same thing happening for me too, same exact issue

I am seeing the same issue as well, can anybody help? v1.19.1

[rychtak]

Exact same issue for me neither. It's not about winapidriver version, or appium deskopt version.

Add me to the list. I'm using WinForms.

the only thing i can suggest is using the newest version of the standalone inspector: https://github.com/appium/appium-inspector/releases. my hunch is that this is an issue with winappdriver inappropriately expecting some parameter that we are not sending.

@jlipps That works for me.
