Monkeyrunner Opening Settings Programmatically - android-testing

Question

I know MonkeyRunner is kind of deprecated, but I still have a weird question.
If I open Settings via touch events from Monkeyrunner Users option is not there,
If I do it as follows same thing.
FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK = 0x10000000
package = 'com.android.settings'
activity='.Settings'
runComponent = package + '/' + activity
device.startActivity(component=runComponent, flags=FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK)
Does anyone know why, or how to get Users to display or open using MonkeyRunner?
Running Android v6.0.1.
Thanks,
Eugene

You can use AndroidViewClient/culebra to do it.
This is a culebra script slightly modified to check for Users while scrolling, but most of it is generated using Culebra GUI:
