Hi Peter, I have checked the libinput implementation and, correct me if I'm wrong, I have seen that 2 fingers click is interpreted as right click, 3 fingers click is interpreted as middle click and there are some special rules for specified trackpads, like corner clicks.
Does that mean that the other MT events are not sent to the clients? Could it be possible to get the 2 fingers pinch gesture from a QML client for example? So mainly my question is: is it possible to port ( https://code.google.com/p/touchegg/) as a wayland compositor, for example to manage desktop specified gestures, and still use client gestures like pinch and zoom? By the way, I compiled Wayland/Weston as specified here: http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html And QtWayland as specified here: http://wayland.freedesktop.org/qt5.html But I don't see any references to the forked libinput library. Does that mean that I should compile libinput and recompile Wayland/Weston against this library instead of the system one? I'm sorry for all the questions, but I didn't find any documentation about that. 2014-06-02 4:30 GMT+01:00 Peter Hutterer <peter.hutte...@who-t.net>: > On Sun, Jun 01, 2014 at 11:38:02PM +0100, José Expósito wrote: > > Hi Daniel, > > > > I'm asking because I'm the author of this tool: > > https://code.google.com/p/touchegg/ > > > > That is exactly what you mention but for X11.
