=== MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch [11:52] cnd: "Max number of touches: 2" [11:52] but, how does windows get these multitouch gestures === MacSlow|lunch is now known as MacSlow [14:51] yorick: applications can get multitouch gestures by using geis, which is our C wrapper around the gesture engine [14:51] there is also a qml library called oif-qml [14:51] and an older gtk library called libgrip [14:51] cnd: I just want something like touchegg (4-finger flicks for desktop switching) [14:52] yorick: ok, well touchegg theoretically should work for you for two touch gestures [14:52] however, you have to turn off "tap to click" and "two touch scrolling" [14:52] otherwise, the X server will process two touches for these features [14:52] cnd: how does it manage 3-touch gestures in windows? [14:52] what do you mean? [14:53] cnd: under windows I have 3-touch gestures just fine [14:54] your trackpad probably provides locations for two touches [14:54] and then says there are actually three touches in total [14:54] this is very typical for synaptics trackpads [14:54] our stack doesn't support three touches for these trackpads, but it is possible to add in support [14:55] unfortunately, it would first require adding support to the X server [14:55] is it a hardware limitation? [14:55] oh, I see [14:55] goddamnit, HP. [14:56] "see, it's multi-touch, it can keep track of TWO fingers at once!" === dandrader is now known as dandrader|afk === dandrader|afk is now known as dandrader === gustavold1 is now known as gustavold [17:10] yorick: yeah (sorry for the late response) [17:11] for a long time, apple was the only company putting out real full multitouch devices === dandrader is now known as dandrader|lunch [17:46] cnd: what companies have them now? [17:46] synaptics has full multitouch now [17:46] on their latest models [17:47] I'm not sure of others === dandrader|lunch is now known as dandrader === dandrader is now known as dandrader|afk === dandrader|afk is now known as dandrader
