@amoxuk , I don't understand, can you detail your question ?

He needs to get the xml structure of the page layout, similar to the file generated by the "UI Automator Viewer". Someone pushed this feature a few years ago, but it was rejected because of non-standard coding.Right? @amoxuk

I developed this feature during business hours, so I can't expose the code to you, or if you look for a record of a pull request before STF. My thoughts:

1. Take a screenshot through the virtual screen of STF
2. Get the XML of the page through ADB and store it in TMP, and then read the XML file just saved

@csdaa it's too slow by adb dump&read. I had verified this method. So I want some efficient method.
