RaspberryPi touchscreen does not react to touch in Qt app

MajidKamali

Hi.
I compiled Qt5.12.7 natively in RaspberryPi 3B+, Raspbian, EGLFS.
I have a waveshare 3.5" type C touchscreen, drivers installed and has display output correctly.
But I can not touch the screen in Qt app. In lxde desktop environment, touchscreen works ok.
I enabled plugin logging qt.qpa.* and here's the results for default libinput:

qt.qpa.egldeviceintegration: EGL device integration plugin keys: ("eglfs_brcm", "eglfs_emu")
qt.qpa.egldeviceintegration: EGL device integration plugin keys (sorted): ("eglfs_brcm", "eglfs_emu")

To override, set QT_QPA_EGLFS_PHYSICAL_WIDTH and QT_QPA_EGLFS_PHYSICAL_HEIGHT (in millimeters).

I used evdev, but touch does not work again: (QT_QPA_EGLFS_NO_LIBINPUT=1)

I don't know what might be the problem, Is it related to these lines?

Thanks

Same behavior (driver ADS7846)
I thought problem is that min and max value is 0

qt.qpa.input: evdevtouch: /dev/input/event6: min X: 0 max X: 0
qt.qpa.input: evdevtouch: /dev/input/event6: min Y: 0 max Y: 0

But evtest work correctly.

Input device name: "ADS7846 Touchscreen"
Supported events:
  Event type 0 (EV_SYN)
  Event type 1 (EV_KEY)
    Event code 330 (BTN_TOUCH)
  Event type 3 (EV_ABS)
    Event code 0 (ABS_X)
      Value   2911
      Min        0
      Max     4095
    Event code 1 (ABS_Y)
      Value   3039
      Min        0
      Max     4095
    Event code 24 (ABS_PRESSURE)
      Value      0
      Min        0
      Max      255

Don't know how to solve this.
Thank for any help.

when I compile QT from fresh source, it work....

Hi all.
I have the same problem with Rpi 3b, Qt 5.8.0 and ELGFS, compiled from fresh.

I get
qt.qpa.input: evdevtouch: /dev/input/event0: min X: 0 max X: 0

and if I touch on the screen nothing happens.
evtest works fine
