Thanks for the feedback!
Unfortunately libinput list-devices doesn’t give full device list like distinguishing pen and eraser and etc. I believe you should have xwayland installed for x11 compatibility, then xinput --list should list the correct devices, and then if you can paste that list here, I should be able to see how to identify the devices from the list. Thank you!
I double checked and I apparently can just install `xinput` so I did; I thought that it wasn't something I could run anymore even with xwayand. I think that it won't be too helpful though since it just shows the compatibility layer. From runing `xinput --list`, I get:
WARNING: running xinput against an Xwayland server. See the xinput man page for details. ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ xwayland-pointer:10 id=6 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ xwayland-relative-pointer:10 id=7 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ xwayland-pointer-gestures:10 id=8 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ xwayland-tablet stylus:10 id=10 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ xwayland-tablet eraser:10 id=11 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ xwayland-tablet cursor:10 id=12 [slave pointer (2)] ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ xwayland-keyboard:10 id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
It might just be Wayland only giving you these virtual devices rather than OpenTabletDriver that causes issues with pressure? I'll see if I can test in x11 at some point as well. (also hopefully the code block formatted properly)
Humm I see, so apparently the name has a :10 appended to them (Like stylus:10) and from the look of the current code then indeed Our Paint would not be able to locate which is the stylus (it strictly matches “stylus” as a word), so I’ll need to modify that part of the logic (Or provide an option for user to choose when automatic detection fails).
Thank you very much for the feedback :D You will make Our Paint much better :D
No problem, I'm happy I could help out! I wanted to try the software but without pressure sensitive input it was difficult.
I also took a moment to look in X11 (I don't use it because of other reasons but the tablet still works) to see what OpenTabletDriver displays. The only devices it seems to have are:
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ OpenTabletDriver Virtual Artist Tablet Pen (0) id=27 [slave pointer (2) ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ OpenTabletDriver Virtual Artist Tablet id=26 [slave keyboard (3)]
(I've cut the other devices out since they're now my actual keyboard, etc)
As far as I can tell those are the only ones exposed? Everything else in my list is something I recognize so I don't think there's any other unique names.
Hi, thank you for the additional information! I’ll include a fix in a bug fix release that handles such case. Currently it only sets the device via string name matching for “pen” and “stylus” and “eraser”, so I will either implement a manual device selection feature or a better recognition algorithm :D
