For details, see the protocol + specification. + + More than one tablet may exist, and device-specifics matter. Tablets are + not represented by a single virtual device like wl_pointer. A client + binds to the tablet manager object which is just a proxy object. From + that, the client requests wp_tablet_manager.get_tablet_seat(wl_seat) + and that returns the actual interface that has all the tablets. With + this indirection, we can avoid merging wp_tablet into the actual Wayland + protocol, a long-term benefit. + + The wp_tablet_seat sends a "tablet added" event for each tablet + connected. That event is followed by descriptive events about the + hardware; currently that includes events for name, vid/pid and + a wp_tablet.path event that describes a local path. This path can be + used to uniquely identify a tablet or get more information through + libwacom. Emulated or nested tablets can skip any of those, e.g. a + virtual tablet may not have a vid/pid. The sequence of descriptive + events is terminated by a wp_tablet.done event to signal that a client + may now finalize any initialization for that tablet. + + Events from tablets require a tool in proximity. Tools are also managed + by the tablet seat; a "tool added" event is sent whenever a tool is new + to the compositor. That event is followed by a number of descriptive + events about the hardware; currently that includes capabilities, + hardware id and serial number, and tool type. Similar to the tablet + interface, a wp_tablet_tool.done event is sent to terminate that initial + sequence. + + Any event from a tool happens on the wp_tablet_tool interface. When the + tool gets into proximity of the tablet, a proximity_in event is sent on + the wp_tablet_tool interface, listing the tablet and the surface. That + event is followed by a motion event with the coordinates. After that, + it's the usual motion, axis, button, etc. events. The protocol's + serialisation means events are grouped by wp_tablet_tool.frame events. + + Two special events (that don't exist in X) are down and up. They signal + "tip touching the surface". For tablets without real proximity + detection, the sequence is: proximity_in, motion, down, frame. + + When the tool leaves proximity, a proximity_out event is sent. If any + button is still down, a button release event is sent before this + proximity event. These button events are sent in the same frame as the + proximity event to signal to the client that the buttons were held when + the tool left proximity. + + If the tool moves out of the surface but stays in proximity (i.e. + between windows), compositor-specific grab policies apply. This usually + means that the proximity-out is delayed until all buttons are released. + + Moving a tool physically from one tablet to the other has no real effect + on the protocol, since we already have the tool object from the "tool + added" event. All the information is already there and the proximity + events on both tablets are all a client needs to reconstruct what + happened. + + Some extra axes are normalized, i.e. the client knows the range as + specified in the protocol (e.g. [0, 65535]), the granularity however is + unknown. The current normalized axes are pressure, distance, and slider. + + Other extra axes are in physical units as specified in the protocol. + The current extra axes with physical units are tilt, rotation and + wheel rotation. + + Since tablets work independently of the pointer controlled by the mouse, + the focus handling is independent too and controlled by proximity. + The wp_tablet_tool.set_cursor request sets a tool-specific cursor. + This cursor surface may be the same as the mouse cursor, and it may be + the same across tools but it is possible to be more fine-grained. For + example, a client may set different cursors for the pen and eraser. + + Tools are generally independent of tablets and it is + compositor-specific policy when a tool can be removed. Common approaches + will likely include some form of removing a tool when all tablets the + tool was used on are removed. + + Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and + backward incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes + may be added together with the corresponding interface version bump. + Backward incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in + the protocol and interface names and resetting the interface version. + Once the protocol is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the + version number in the protocol and interface names are removed and the + interface version number is reset. + + + + + An object that provides access to the graphics tablets available on this + system. All tablets are associated with a seat, to get access to the + actual tablets, use wp_tablet_manager.get_tablet_seat. + + + + + Get the wp_tablet_seat object for the given seat. This object + provides access to all graphics tablets in this seat. + + + + + + + + Destroy the wp_tablet_manager object. Objects created from this + object are unaffected and should be destroyed separately. + + + + + + + An object that provides access to the graphics tablets available on this + seat. After binding to this interface, the compositor sends a set of + wp_tablet_seat.tablet_added and wp_tablet_seat.tool_added events. + + + + + Destroy the wp_tablet_seat object. Objects created from this + object are unaffected and should be destroyed separately. + + + + + + This event is sent whenever a new tablet becomes available on this + seat. This event only provides the object id of the tablet, any + static information about the tablet (device name, vid/pid, etc.) is + sent through the wp_tablet interface. + + + + + + + This event is sent whenever a tool that has not previously been used + with a tablet comes into use. This event only provides the object id + of the tool; any static information about the tool (capabilities, + type, etc.) is sent through the wp_tablet_tool interface. + + + + + + + + An object that represents a physical tool that has been, or is + currently in use with a tablet in this seat. Each wp_tablet_tool + object stays valid until the client destroys it; the compositor + reuses the wp_tablet_tool object to indicate that the object's + respective physical tool has come into proximity of a tablet again. + + A wp_tablet_tool object's relation to a physical tool depends on the + tablet's ability to report serial numbers. If the tablet supports + this capability, then the object represents a specific physical tool + and can be identified even when used on multiple tablets. + + A tablet tool has a number of static characteristics, e.g. tool type, + hardware_serial and capabilities. These capabilities are sent in an + event sequence after the wp_tablet_seat.tool_added event before any + actual events from this tool. This initial event sequence is + terminated by a wp_tablet_tool.done event. + + Tablet tool events are grouped by wp_tablet_tool.frame events. + Any events received before a wp_tablet_tool.frame event should be + considered part of the same hardware state change. + + + + + Sets the surface of the cursor used for this tool on the given + tablet. This request only takes effect if the tool is in proximity + of one of the requesting client's surfaces or the surface parameter + is the current pointer surface. If there was a previous surface set + with this request it is replaced. If surface is NULL, the cursor + image is hidden. + + The parameters hotspot_x and hotspot_y define the position of the + pointer surface relative to the pointer location. Its top-left corner + is always at (x, y) - (hotspot_x, hotspot_y), where (x, y) are the + coordinates of the pointer location, in surface-local coordinates. + + On surface.attach requests to the pointer surface, hotspot_x and + hotspot_y are decremented by the x and y parameters passed to the + request. Attach must be confirmed by wl_surface.commit as usual. + + The hotspot can also be updated by passing the currently set pointer + surface to this request with new values for hotspot_x and hotspot_y. + + The current and pending input regions of the wl_surface are cleared, + and wl_surface.set_input_region is ignored until the wl_surface is no + longer used as the cursor. When the use as a cursor ends, the current + and pending input regions become undefined, and the wl_surface is + unmapped. + + This request gives the surface the role of a cursor. The role + assigned by this request is the same as assigned by + wl_pointer.set_cursor meaning the same surface can be + used both as a wl_pointer cursor and a wp_tablet cursor. If the + surface already has another role, it raises a protocol error. + The surface may be used on multiple tablets and across multiple + seats. + + + + + + + + + + This destroys the client's resource for this tool object. + + + + + + Describes the physical type of a tool. The physical type of a tool + generally defines its base usage. + + The mouse tool represents a mouse-shaped tool that is not a relative + device but bound to the tablet's surface, providing absolute + coordinates. + + The lens tool is a mouse-shaped tool with an attached lens to + provide precision focus. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + The tool type is the high-level type of the tool and usually decides + the interaction expected from this tool. + + This event is sent in the initial burst of events before the + wp_tablet_tool.done event. + + + + + + + If the physical tool can be identified by a unique 64-bit serial + number, this event notifies the client of this serial number. + + If multiple tablets are available in the same seat and the tool is + uniquely identifiable by the serial number, that tool may move + between tablets. + + Otherwise, if the tool has no serial number and this event is + missing, the tool is tied to the tablet it first comes into + proximity with. Even if the physical tool is used on multiple + tablets, separate wp_tablet_tool objects will be created, one per + tablet. + + This event is sent in the initial burst of events before the + wp_tablet_tool.done event. + + + + + + + + This event notifies the client of a hardware id available on this tool. + + The hardware id is a device-specific 64-bit id that provides extra + information about the tool in use, beyond the wl_tool.type + enumeration. The format of the id is specific to tablets made by + Wacom Inc. For example, the hardware id of a Wacom Grip + Pen (a stylus) is 0x802. + + This event is sent in the initial burst of events before the + wp_tablet_tool.done event. + + + + + + + + Describes extra capabilities on a tablet. + + Any tool must provide x and y values, extra axes are + device-specific. + + + + + + + + + + + + This event notifies the client of any capabilities of this tool, + beyond the main set of x/y axes and tip up/down detection. + + One event is sent for each extra capability available on this tool. + + This event is sent in the initial burst of events before the + wp_tablet_tool.done event. + + + + + + + This event signals the end of the initial burst of descriptive + events. A client may consider the static description of the tool to + be complete and finalize initialization of the tool. + + + + + + This event is sent when the tool is removed from the system and will + send no further events. Should the physical tool come back into + proximity later, a new wp_tablet_tool object will be created. + + It is compositor-dependent when a tool is removed. A compositor may + remove a tool on proximity out, tablet removal or any other reason. + A compositor may also keep a tool alive until shutdown. + + If the tool is currently in proximity, a proximity_out event will be + sent before the removed event. See wp_tablet_tool.proximity_out for + the handling of any buttons logically down. + + When this event is received, the client must wp_tablet_tool.destroy + the object. + + + + + + Notification that this tool is focused on a certain surface. + + This event can be received when the tool has moved from one surface to + another, or when the tool has come back into proximity above the + surface. + + If any button is logically down when the tool comes into proximity, + the respective button event is sent after the proximity_in event but + within the same frame as the proximity_in event. + + + + + + + + + Notification that this tool has either left proximity, or is no + longer focused on a certain surface. + + When the tablet tool leaves proximity of the tablet, button release + events are sent for each button that was held down at the time of + leaving proximity. These events are sent before the proximity_out + event but within the same wp_tablet.frame. + + If the tool stays within proximity of the tablet, but the focus + changes from one surface to another, a button release event may not + be sent until the button is actually released or the tool leaves the + proximity of the tablet. + + + + + + Sent whenever the tablet tool comes in contact with the surface of the + tablet. + + If the tool is already in contact with the tablet when entering the + input region, the client owning said region will receive a + wp_tablet.proximity_in event, followed by a wp_tablet.down + event and a wp_tablet.frame event. + + Note that this event describes logical contact, not physical + contact. On some devices, a compositor may not consider a tool in + logical contact until a minimum physical pressure threshold is + exceeded. + + + + + + + Sent whenever the tablet tool stops making contact with the surface of + the tablet, or when the tablet tool moves out of the input region + and the compositor grab (if any) is dismissed. + + If the tablet tool moves out of the input region while in contact + with the surface of the tablet and the compositor does not have an + ongoing grab on the surface, the client owning said region will + receive a wp_tablet.up event, followed by a wp_tablet.proximity_out + event and a wp_tablet.frame event. If the compositor has an ongoing + grab on this device, this event sequence is sent whenever the grab + is dismissed in the future. + + Note that this event describes logical contact, not physical + contact. On some devices, a compositor may not consider a tool out + of logical contact until physical pressure falls below a specific + threshold. + + + + + + Sent whenever a tablet tool moves. + + + + + + + + Sent whenever the pressure axis on a tool changes. The value of this + event is normalized to a value between 0 and 65535. + + Note that pressure may be nonzero even when a tool is not in logical + contact. See the down and up events for more details. + + + + + + + Sent whenever the distance axis on a tool changes. The value of this + event is normalized to a value between 0 and 65535. + + Note that distance may be nonzero even when a tool is not in logical + contact. See the down and up events for more details. + + + + + + + Sent whenever one or both of the tilt axes on a tool change. Each tilt + value is in 0.01 of a degree, relative to the z-axis of the tablet. + The angle is positive when the top of a tool tilts along the + positive x or y axis. + + + + + + + + Sent whenever the z-rotation axis on the tool changes. The + rotation value is in 0.01 of a degree clockwise from the tool's + logical neutral position. + + + + + + + Sent whenever the slider position on the tool changes. The + value is normalized between -65535 and 65535, with 0 as the logical + neutral position of the slider. + + The slider is available on e.g. the Wacom Airbrush tool. + + + + + + + Sent whenever the wheel on the tool emits an event. This event + contains two values for the same axis change. The degrees value is + in 0.01 of a degree in the same orientation as the + wl_pointer.vertical_scroll axis. The clicks value is in discrete + logical clicks of the mouse wheel. This value may be zero if the + movement of the wheel was less than one logical click. + + Clients should choose either value and avoid mixing degrees and + clicks. The compositor may accumulate values smaller than a logical + click and emulate click events when a certain threshold is met. + Thus, wl_tablet_tool.wheel events with non-zero clicks values may + have different degrees values. + + + + + + + + Describes the physical state of a button that produced the button event. + + + + + + + + Sent whenever a button on the tool is pressed or released. + + If a button is held down when the tool moves in or out of proximity, + button events are generated by the compositor. See + wp_tablet_tool.proximity_in and wp_tablet_tool.proximity_out for + details. + + + + + + + + + + Marks the end of a series of axis and/or button updates from the + tablet. The Wayland protocol requires axis updates to be sent + sequentially, however all events within a frame should be considered + one hardware event. + + + + + + + + + + + + The wp_tablet interface represents one graphics tablet device. The + tablet interface itself does not generate events; all events are + generated by wp_tablet_tool objects when in proximity above a tablet. + + A tablet has a number of static characteristics, e.g. device name and + pid/vid. These capabilities are sent in an event sequence after the + wp_tablet_seat.tablet_added event. This initial event sequence is + terminated by a wp_tablet.done event. + + + + + This destroys the client's resource for this tablet object. + + + + + + This event is sent in the initial burst of events before the + wp_tablet.done event. + + + + + + + This event is sent in the initial burst of events before the + wp_tablet.done event. + + + + + + + + A system-specific device path that indicates which device is behind + this wp_tablet. This information may be used to gather additional + information about the device, e.g. through libwacom. + + A device may have more than one device path. If so, multiple + wp_tablet.path events are sent. A device may be emulated and not + have a device path, and in that case this event will not be sent. + + The format of the path is unspecified, it may be a device node, a + sysfs path, or some other identifier. It is up to the client to + identify the string provided. + + This event is sent in the initial burst of events before the + wp_tablet.done event. + + + + + + + This event is sent immediately to signal the end of the initial + burst of descriptive events. A client may consider the static + description of the tablet to be complete and finalize initialization + of the tablet. + + + + + + Sent when the tablet has been removed from the system. When a tablet + is removed, some tools may be removed. + + When this event is received, the client must wp_tablet.destroy + the object. + + + + + -- cgit v1.2.3
