      Hi all,

      I have a debian wheezy system with Qt 5.5 and an USB Multitouch screen.

      • mtdev-test works and shows the correct number of recognized fingers (up to 10)
      • export QT_XCB_DEBUG_XINPUT_DEVICES=1 displays the following:
      # some other devices....
      qt.qpa.input.devices: input device  3M 3M MicroTouch USB controller
      qt.qpa.input.devices:    has 5 buttons
      qt.qpa.input.devices:    has valuator "Abs X" recognized? true
      qt.qpa.input.devices:    has valuator "Abs Y" recognized? true
      qt.qpa.input.devices:    has valuator "Abs MT Position X" recognized? true
      qt.qpa.input.devices:    has valuator "Abs MT Position Y" recognized? true
      qt.qpa.input.devices:    has valuator "" recognized? false
      qt.qpa.input.devices:    has valuator "" recognized? false
      qt.qpa.input.devices:    it's a scrolling device
      

      Well, okay... a scrolling device!?

      • export QT_LOGGING_RULES=qt.qpa.input=true and touching on the screen displays:
      qt.qpa.input: XI2 mouse motion 939,690, time 3870757
      qt.qpa.input: XI2 mouse motion 976,671, time 3870778
      qt.qpa.input: XI2 mouse motion 1025,648, time 3870778
      qt.qpa.input: XI2 mouse motion 1084,613, time 3870781
      qt.qpa.input: XI2 mouse motion 1151,576, time 3870789
      qt.qpa.input: XI2 mouse motion 1220,551, time 3870797
      
      

      So... Does anybody has an idea how to tell Qt that this is a multitouch device?
      Setting QT_QPA_EVDEV_TOUCHSCREEN_PARAMETERS to the appropriate event didn't helped.

      Thank you very much in advance!!

        Hi,

        I think you should bring this question to the interest mailing list. You'll find there Qt's developers/maintainers (this forum is more user oriented)
