TAG Review Completion: Extending the PointerEvent with Unique DeviceId Attribute · Issue #880 · w3ctag/design-reviews (github.com) <https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/880> Resolution: Satisfied 2.

A PR against the PointerEvent spec with proposed changes: Add deviceId to PointerEvent spec by sahirv · Pull Request #495 · w3c/pointerevents (github.com) <https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/pull/495/files> We will be waiting for Spec Level 3 to come out before this can be merged; but this provides an official starting point for the standardized description of this feature. Based on the feedback received, I don't anticipate any major changes to the design. Thanks for the PR! Was it reviewed by other WG members? For example, "User agents MAY reserve a generic `deviceId` value of `0` or `1` for events generated by the primary mouse device." seems risky from an interop perspective. E.g. developers may rely on some UAs doing that and fail when others don't. For posterity, I was initially unsure why this wasn't an issue on the w3c/pointerevents, but it does seem like the discussion happened there and folks agreed to move this in WICG: https://github.com/w3c/ pointerevents/issues/353 \o/ Reviewers, can we please get another review for shipping this feature?

The steps have been started, just awaiting feedback from Security and Privacy reviewers. I've received LGTMs for all other areas. After our response to WebKit's question, they did not have any further follow-up questions. So I'm assuming all is well.

It is possible they were made mandatory after you create the entry, but it would be good if you could get them started now at least. Also, it's unfortunate that TAG and standards positions requests have not resulted in anything, but that is hardly your fault. There were some questions in the WebKit request. Is all that ok now? /Daniel On 2023-10-06 20:10, 'Sahir Vellani' via blink-dev wrote: On Friday, October 6, 2023 at 9:03:35 AM UTC-7 [email protected] wrote: On 10/4/23 7:43 PM, 'Sahir Vellani' via blink-dev wrote: Contact emails [email protected], [email protected] Explainer https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/MSEdgeExplainers/blob/main/ PointerEventDeviceId/explainer.md Specification https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/MSEdgeExplainers/blob/main/ PointerEventDeviceId/explainer.md Is there a more formal spec for this? Any support outside of Microsoft that would enable y'all to move this to the WICG? Summary As devices with advanced pen input capabilities are becoming increasingly prevalent, it is important that the web platform continues to evolve to fully support these advanced features in order to unlock rich experiences for both end users and developers. One such advancement is the ability for a device's digitizer to recognize more than one pen device interacting with it simultaneously. This feature is an extension to the PointerEvent interface to include a new attribute, deviceId, that represents a session-persistent, document isolated, unique identifier that a developer can reliably use to identify individual pens interacting with the page. Blink component Blink>Input <https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/list?q=component:Blink%3EInput> TAG review https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/880 TAG review status Pending. TAG review has been pending for 2 months. Risks Interoperability and Compatibility *Gecko*: No signal (https://github.com/mozilla/ standards-positions/issues/715) *WebKit*: No signal (https://github.com/WebKit/ standards-positions/issues/102) *Web developers*: No signals *Other signals*: WebView application risks *Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?* None Debuggability Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome OS, Android, and Android WebView)? No Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests <https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md> ? No. However, there are web tests in Chromium that test PointerEventInit with this feature. Flag name on chrome://flags PointerEventDeviceId Finch feature name Non-finch justification Edge origin trials successfully underway. Any Origin Trial feedback you can share? Absolutely, the feature has been working well. Our partners (Microsoft Whiteboard) have enabled the feature that is dependent on this API for their general audience! We did not receive any constructive feedback. This API is being used by them on Microsoft Surface Hub devices, which support multi-pen inking. Requires code in //chrome? False Measurement PointerEventDeviceId use counter implemented. Availability expectation Initially available on Chromium browsers on Windows. Out of curiosity, are there limitations on other platforms that prevent supporting this feature? We haven't been able to get our hands on hardware that supports other platforms in addition to multi pen inking in order to implement and appropriately test this feature. We welcome any sponsors for implementing and testing this, especially on Linux/Android. Adoption expectation Feature is used by specific partner(s) to provide functionality immediately upon launch. Adoption plan This feature has been through origin trials on Edge. It is being used by partners that provide features on devices with multi pen support. Non-OSS dependencies *Does the feature depend on any code or APIs outside the Chromium open source repository and its open-source dependencies to function?* Operating system API's are used to obtain the device id, and are necessary for this feature to function. Please see the security questionnaire in the TAG review on security and privacy concerns related to the use of these APIs. Estimated milestones Shipping on desktop 120 Anticipated spec changes *Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or interop issues. Please list open issues (e.g. links to known github issues in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution may introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g., changing to naming or structure of the API in a non-backward-compatible way).* WICG Proposal: https://github.com/WICG/proposals/issues/101 No web compat/interop risk.
