I’m facing an issue where the touch interface works correctly with raw QTouchEvent handling, but UI elements (QPushButton, QCheckBox, QComboBox, etc.) do not receive touch events.

✅ What works

• When I test using evtest, touch coordinates are detected.

• Qt QTouchEvent / fingerpaint-style examples work and print the touch coordinates.

• TouchBegin / TouchUpdate / TouchEnd events are fired correctly.

❌ What does NOT work

• Qt Widgets UI controls do not respond to touch.

• Buttons do not click.

• Even though touch is detected at the Qt event level, the UI never triggers a pressed/clicked state.

🔍 Possible root cause

The TSC2007 resistive touch driver outputs raw 12-bit ADC values (0–4095) for both X and Y axes.

Example from evtest:

• ABS_X: 3000
• ABS_Y: 1400

But my display resolution is 1024 × 768, so Qt expects screen-mapped coordinates.

This mismatch means:

• Qt receives coordinates OUTSIDE the widget layouts

• Touch events never map to the correct button positions

• QTouchEvent works because it reads raw values, but QWidget-based button interaction fails

⚙️ System Details

• SoC: Allwinner A133

• OS: Ubuntu 18.04

• Kernel: 4.9

• Qt Version: 5.12.12 (Widgets)

• Touch Controller: TSC2007 (Resistive)

• Application Type: Qt Widgets (not QML)

🙏 What I need help with

I’m looking for guidance from anyone who has implemented resistive touch on Qt Widgets using TSC2007 or similar drivers.

Any advice, examples, or references from anyone who worked on resistive touch with Qt 5.x would be really appreciated.

Thank you!
