    Dear All,

    With Reference to -> http://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/interest/2012-February/000792.html

    [Quote]
    What Qt does not support is multiple pointers, including multiple focus.
    That's what MPX is for and there are no plans of supporting that, ever. Touch
    is different.
    [UnQuote]

    The above post is of Feb, 2012.

    I want to know whether the status is same or changed ?

    I mean is MPX(feasibility of multiple focus/keyboard-entries in the same application developed using Qt/X11) supported now ? I am asking this because i saw xinput2 support-activation-option while configuring (./configure --help) the Qt before compilation/installation.


    Thanks and Regards,
    Navneet Kataria

      No change. Multiple pointers are not supported.

      Qt 5 is likely to have some level of XInput2 support but that is only for Wacom tablets and possibly touchscreens. MPX is not in scope.
