Hi all, I have some problems using xournal 4.8, on a Sony Vaio Duo 11, with ubuntu 14.10.
First of all, here it is the output of `xinput --list`:
carlo@med:~$ xinput --list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Crucialtek co.,LTD Optical Track Pad id=10 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ N-trig DuoSense Pen id=13 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ N-trig DuoSense id=14 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Video Bus id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Sony Vaio Keys id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ USB2.0 Camera Front id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ USB2.0 Camera Rear id=11 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=12 [slave keyboard (3)]
So, as you can see, my input for the tablet is differentiated into the
input for the pen and the input for the touchscreen. So, for example,
if I run `xinput --disable 14` I can use xournal with the pen only. In
what follows I will leave enabled both devices.
So, I have three different problems:
1) I'd like to obtain a setup like the one one-note has, in which I
use the hand to move around (hand mode). So, I'm trying to use the
button `Designate as touchscreen`, for which I have a number of
options:
- Virtual Core XTEST pointer
- Crucialtek co.,LTD Optical Track Pad
- N-Trig Duosense Pen
- N-Trig Duosense
- Core Pointer
I tried to set `N-Trig Duosense` as the touchscreen, but then the
option `Touchscreen as Handtool` turns *both* the touch and the pen in
the handtool. I'd like the pen to remain usable to write.
Interestingly, if I set `N-Trig Duosense Pen` as the touchscreen
device, I'm able to use the pen as handtool and the touch to write.
The other combinations don't seem to do anything useful for my
purposes. How could I change this behaviour?
2) Button 3 mapping. I don't seem to be able to change the function of
my third button, which does always what the primary pen is
doing. Button 2 map works fine. Are there any ways in which I could
troubleshoot this?
3) When I set pen pressure to on, the pen outputs a streak of pressure
when I'm about to lift my pen from the tablet (see the attached
pdf). This happens if I try to draw a very low pressured line, when I
lift the pen from the tablet, and when I handwrite (the end of the
letter display a sharp trait). Especially the second problem is a bit
unsettling. So, is there a way in which I could tweak the pen output
to avoid that? (I could always keep pen pressure off, but that's a
shame).
Thanks in advance
