Description ccrisis 2011-06-08 07:03:54 UTC

Description of problem:
No "absolute" mode for wacom tablet: The drawing area is stretched to the screen regardless of aspect-ratio. Absolute mode cuts off whatever part of the tablet active area to match the aspect-ratio of the screen.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.11.0-1.fc15.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always


  


Additional info:

I tried setting this like in the old days by editing xorg.conf with the appropriate settings and starting X with the tablet plugged in, thinking it might be a tablet hotplug regression, but that had no change in the results. The Xorg log only gave this error:

[  1131.931] (EE) PreInit returned 8 for "Wacom Graphire2 4x5"

Comment 11 ccrisis 2011-06-08 19:04:55 UTC

I added two evtests since there are two /dev/input entries in the log relating to the same Wacom tablet. The logs may have different screen resolutions since I changed monitors trying to test this. It wasn't so noticeable on 5:4 but very noticable on 6:9 aspect.

Comment 12 ccrisis 2011-06-09 20:57:48 UTC

I would like to make a correction. The missing mode is not "Absolute", it's actually "KeepShape". Absolute mode is what maps the tablet to the screen as opposed to being a relative space like a mouse, and this is working as is. KeepShape is what cuts off tablet space to compensate the screen aspect-ratio. Sorry about that. I tried the settings in xorg.conf but the result is the same.

Comment 13 Peter Hutterer 2011-06-09 23:12:45 UTC

KeepShape has been kicked out upstream, so the feature is simply missing now. We plan to put it back in in a more sensible manner than before, but for now all I can do here is close this as UPSTREAM and wait for the upstream release that re-adds the feature again. sorry.
