Hi Johannes, it would just be an option to tick so that the eye tracking device is used to change UI reactions (hide panels when you don't look at them for instance). My issue is that there's no standard yet as regards eye tracking APIs, so I would hook to one from a specific vendor (not on a driver level, there's a server/client infrastructure). I was wondering if this could hypothetically be merged upstream, or if the vendor dependency was a no go ? Not sure of the end result, I was just considering it and wondering what would be the status of such a patch. Benjamin
