tannewtany ideas how I should integrate apple-like multitouch into X?22:30
Amaranthtannewt: already done23:00
tannewtAmaranth: you mean MPX?23:12
Amaranthyes23:12
tannewtAmaranth: it seems overly complex for what I'd like to do23:13
Amaranththat's kind of the point :)23:13
tannewtAmaranth: I dont need to worry about multiple points and multiple focii23:13
Amaranthit can do everything, it's up to the app creator (or library creator) to define what to do23:13
tannewtAmaranth: right, I'd rather integrate into normal X though so it works with everything now23:15
Amarantherr, it already does?23:15
Amaranththat was a key thing in the design23:16
Amaranthand if you're not worried about multiple points then you're not doing multitouch23:16
tannewtAmaranth: doesn't it require a different version of X?23:16
Amaranthno23:16
Amaranthit just requires one that hasn't been released yet23:16
tannewtAmaranth: right, I'm doing apple's version of multitouch23:16
tannewtAmaranth: when is it slated for release?23:17
Amaranthapple doesn't have their own version of multitouch...23:17
Amaranththey have some gestures defined23:17
AmaranthMPX probably won't be in a public Xorg release until the end of the year23:17
tannewtright, gestures dependent on multiple points, 1-11 supported23:18
Amaranthyou just said you didn't need multiple points23:18
Amaranthbut it's up to an application or library to define these gestures, X doesn't do policy23:18
tannewtAmaranth: right, I was thinking of writing a daemon/driver to do the gesture stuff and pass those events onto X23:20
Amaranththat'll never be accepted in Xorg23:20
tannewtAmaranth: doesn't need to be23:21
tannewtAmaranth: it can be separate23:21
Amaranthgood luck then23:21
tannewtAmaranth: is there a way for a desktop daemon to send X events?23:21
AmaranthYou can't just make up new events23:21
tannewtAmaranth: what about ones already defined?23:22
Amaranththere are none already defined that fit what you're trying to do23:22
Amaranthbut you can use XTest to fake events23:22
tannewtwell, I'm saying I'll run code which understands the gesture stuff and sends events like right clicks and scrolls23:23
Amaranththen you have to modify applications to know to do multitouch things with those23:23
tannewtbut at that point it doesn't matter if it was a usb mouse or a gesture23:24
