Hi, |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
found something: |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
A review on www.amazon.com of this device states, that the EasyCat |
| 55 |
manual is useable when it comes to the tap/click/scroll behaviour/ |
| 56 |
useage of the PERIXX PERIPAD 501. |
| 57 |
Vie google I found cirquecattouchpadguide_revf.pdf which clearifies |
| 58 |
the needed geatures. |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
For scrolling one has to move ONE finger on the right edge of the |
| 61 |
pad. |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
And it scrolls! |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
BUT unfortunately the scrollevents ALWAYS reach the taskbar and I am |
| 66 |
warped through my desktops regardless of the focus a certain windows |
| 67 |
has. |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
This even happens, when the cursor and the focus is on the window |
| 70 |
of xev, with which I tried to catch the even. |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
How can I "channelize" the events to the focussed window? |
| 73 |
|
| 74 |
Thank you very much in advance for any help! |
| 75 |
Best regards, |
| 76 |
