            Bug ID: 96866
           Summary: Please Support Stylus Pen on Windows
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.0.4.2 rc
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

More and more Windows tablets support the stylus pens, like Microsoft Surface
series and my ASUS VivoTab Note 8 (M80TA).
The M80TA's Wacom stylus pen has a button. I can set it to eraser to erase pen
drawings in e.g. OneNote and PowerPoint Slide Show mode.

However, Impress doesn't support the stylus pen. I can't use the pen button to
erase the pen drawings. Impress also doesn't support to automatically enable
drawing pen when the pen approaches the tablet screen and disable drawing pen
when the pen leaves the tablet screen. If it supports that, we can use our
fingers to forward slide pages and not to draw something (the stylue pen is
responsible for drawing instead) as PowerPoint Slide Show mode.

I am not a professional Windows programmer. However, in my impression, Windows
has special APIs to support the stylus pen (including the erase functionality).
Could Impress support the stylus pen on Windows? Thanks very much.
