Working on the install of Elive on a Thinkpad Helix2 2nd gen I got to wondering what exactly is a nice feature to have on a tablet specifically and what not. Elive itself in it's current iteration is not very tablet friendly for a number of a reasons with the most obvious being that the default dpi…

ARM version is kind of necessary, because most (although not all - case in point, yours) tablets are ARM-based and not x86.

[image] TheTechRobo: ARM version Oww, that hurts, I forgot .... but you are right. :smiley14: albeit tablets are getting discontinued more and more...whatever their provenance. ARM version was on my todo list for, at the time of the PinebookPro and prolly soon a resurrected tablet (with the …

[image] triantares: Elive itself in it's current iteration is not very tablet friendly for a number of a reasons with the most obvious being that the default dpi setting is definitely too small for a tablet. note that both "touch feautres" and "dpi" things are not very compatible with E16, ev…

[image] Thanatermesis: are you suggesting to move cairo-dock in a side when tablet-mode is found? Yes, any bar/panel for that fact and have the virtual keyboard open at the bottom of the screen....in any rotation mode. [image] Thanatermesis: works on your machine, since you have a table…

[image] triantares: Yes, any bar/panel for that fact and have the virtual keyboard open at the bottom of the screen....in any rotation mode. sounds good, let me know about the "keyboard: not found" thing progress and if enables vkeyboard by default on e16 login AND lightdm, so we can continu…

[image] Thanatermesis: In fact, if you play with E25 for that you can create a howto about the changes required / suggested for make it more tablet-friendly (there's some settings, virtual keyboards as you said, and even emodules (illume?) that could be loaded for a better handling of that), and…

For touch on at least E16 'touchegg' and 'touche' look promising. [image] GitHub - JoseExposito/touchegg: Linux multi-touch gesture recognizer Linux multi-touch gesture recognizer I'll checkout later to see how it pans out and if the X11 Gnome add-on i…

[image] triantares: Albeit that E25 has a horrible interface to change key settings and the conf file prolly hidden somewhere in a hidden or poorly accessible .edje. that's an EET, and is good for optimizations :slight_smile: : From Making sure you're not a bot! This library is a data stor…

[image] Thanatermesis: UPDATE: wow nice! :eyepopping: it directly works on E16! what a good integration! :applause: WOW! You beat me to it ..... I hadn't had time to try. :shocked:

OMG this combo is what exactly Elive e16 missed :applause:   <gesture type="SWIPE" fingers="3" direction="UP"> <action type="RUN_COMMAND"> <repeat>false</repeat> <comm…
