Unable to use most of "Toolbar"-toolbar with Touchscreen

Postby krile » Wed Nov 18, 2009 11:37 pm

Hi,
i got some problems using Algodoo 1.6.0 with a touchscreen.

Most of the UI works, but i got some problems with using all Tools of the "Toolbar"-toolbar, except the Brush tool and Drag tool:
The others only work if you draw/move really really slow one pixel after the other. If you move a little bit too fast the tool finishes without any affect and result drawn.

It's on a Gentoo Linux (2.6.31), using the Xorg "evdev" input driver. It uses absolute positioning mode.

Try putting
Code: Select all
App.GUI.toolGestures = false
into the console ("~" or F11, paste in, then press enter), this switches off the gesture which cancels the tool (shaking the mouse a lot cancels a tool when it has a true value).

Hopefully this helps, if not, can you post a few things for me?
  • Specifications (Video card, CPU, RAM)
  • config.cfg (found in user documents directory)
  • logfile.txt (found in user documents directory)

Hopefully this helped :D.

Thanks that solved it.
I'll also try some other values for "toolGestureSensitivity".
Seems like the input is a bit fuzzy.
