Hello,
I am happy to announce that all the basic features of many mouses and touch
input are now supported. The code is ready. I’m just polishing the looks
now. I would be greatfull for any comments, advice for future upgrade and
for testing:D
We currently support:
- distinguishing devices
- distingusihing tablet pen endings
- proximity events
- detecting pressure
- relative mode
Those are the most basic features that come to my mind now. Here is the
documentation on how to use the new features:
http://wilku.ravenlord.ws/doku.php?id=documentation and informations
regarding drawbacks and differences between Linux and Windows.
I am afraid that there are a few differences between Windows and Linux, all
is explained on that site, but mainly. Windows and Linux differently handle
the pen endings problem, Windows supports only one tablet and SDL currently
supports only the WACOM tablets. I am sorry for such inconvieniences, but
currently it couldn’t be solved differently. I shall try to find a way to
improve all of the features soon. The rotation support will be added at
latest in 2 months, when I get my hands on a better tablet;) Windows
requires Wintab to compile the code. I will be glad to answer any
questions;]
Best wishes–
“For those about to code”
