Question about UI navigation and coordinates
In this blog post it is demonstrated how qwen effortlessly clicks on single excel tabs and seems to be very precise with it,
https://qwen.ai/blog?id=qwen3.5
however no matter what I try, even with the same input image the coordinates for an UI element I ask it to click on are always kind of random and totally off.
Is there any trick or specific format to achieve this?
Qwen is trained to output coordinates from 0-1000 in X and Y position.
so the middle of the image is always 500 500.
Ask for "bbox in json block" and you should see improved performance.
The perf is still not perfect, so I'm also curious about what exactly they did here.
Perhaps a temp of 0?
