State of tablet support

Hi guys,

I noticed, in the roadmap section of the GLFW website, that tablet support is planned for the future. However I don’t know how old that page is. Is tablet support still being actively developed?

Any predictions on when it will be released?

Thank you,
Marcello

I haven’t had time to add tablet support yet. Perhaps for 3.2.

Hi, Camilla. Thanks for the quick reply.

Any guesses on how long that should take?

Thanks again!

No idea.

Ok, let me know if I can help with testing or anything else on that matter.

By the way, roadmap says Linux & Windows versions of tablet support “just” need to be merged to master. Any possibility an “outsider” could do it or help?

Thanks

There are legal issues with that code, so it cannot simply be merged.

Oh, wow. Guess things are never just ‘easy’ when dealing with wacom tablets… :frowning:
