Hello,
Currently the evdev driver has two input properties to allow swapping
and inversion of the axes of pointer devices. It would be great if the
synaptics driver had the same properties (because I'd like to rotate my
touchpad). Is there any plan to implement this? The driver modification
should not be too difficult as there has been already a trial a few
months ago [1].

In particular, what would be the name of the input properties? For now
in evdev they are named like "Evdev Axes Swap". It would be rather
inconvenient to have "Synaptics Axes Swap". Probably the touchscreen
drivers have similar properties. Would it make sense to have them named
identically for every kind of pointer devices, irrespectively of the
driver?

Thanks,
Eric
