Pen mode simulation using touchscreen |
|

It would be great to have an option to simulate "pen mode" (when |
|
touchscreen acts as a mouse on the computer without pen |
|
support). |
|
It looks like right now all the needed components already |
|
present in the TouchMousePointer, they just needs to be |
|
assembled together into a single flow: |
|
1. Full screen mode |
|
2. Relative mode |
|
3. Left mouse click simulation (right now requires a second |
|
click on the touchscreen) |
|
4. Touch movements "as mouse dragging" |
|
so the idea is to automate "3. Left mouse click simulation" |
|
whenever the TOUCH_START event happens, and "release" the left |
|
mouse button whenever the TOUCH_END event happens. |
|
If there were a TOUCH_MOVE events in between - this will result |
|
in something like if "mouse clicked on an object, object was |
|
dragged to the new position, mouse released". |
|
Real usecase: Drawing with a stylus (on a touchscreen) in Slack |
|
app during calls (while sharing a screen). |
|
Unfortunately Slack don't support touchscreens by default and |
|
their support says they don't have any plans for such support |
|
(who are these guys? :O ). |
