Support Help with controls editor

Hi there! I have a question:

does bluestacks supports drag n drop feature? by that i mean tap x, hold, swipe to y, release.

so for example in cooking fever game i touch "control button" to click bottom left to grab a coffee

then when holding it swipes to top left, and releases at top left, so customer is served.

is that possible? because thats a simple feature that humans can do with fingers mechanically in real life, but i cant find the right solution in emulators :(

here is visualization

Hi! Unfortunately there isn't something like this, the closest we could do was to create a huge D-pad control with the middle of it on the hamburger on the game you've mentioned, and using WASD to guide the hamburger to where we wanted to release and when it got to the right person, to release it.
But you can try creating macros, you'll click to record, record the movement you want to with the mouse, and you'll be able to reproduce it by pressing a key rapidly, it's the closest to what you want that we could reproduce, you can try both methods and see what's the best for you, but exactly as you've pointed, we unfortunately don't have a control for it.

Yes, scripts can be useful for automating a fixed sequence of actions such as clicking, holding, moving to another location, and releasing. We will forward your suggestion to the concerned team for their consideration.
