Use GPU-debugger (GAPID) android studio

Viewed 1443

I am trying to use the new open source GPU debugging tool in Android studio since the earlier version was removed

https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/am-gpu-debugger.html

So - I went to the SDK-manager and installed GAPID - no problem with that.

But my question - how do I use it then since it should be integrated in Android Studio?

The GPU-rendering profile is already enabled on the device (adb shell dumpsys gfx-info)

All I can see by now is a green timeline in the GPU-debugger

What could be missing/the problem or my missunderstanding?

Unfortunately, GAPID and AndroidStudio don't mix. Even though GAPID can be installed via the SDK Manager.

As a matter of fact, they recommend you close AndroidStudio, and make sure it is not running when you want to use GAPID.
