Re: Getting Trackpad Support in before feature freeze?

 

Hi,

would be really great.
I use it since Garth provided his branch and merge it regularly into my builds.
Currently I only use the panning part, because you still have to patch wxWidgets for the pinch-to-zoom.

I didn’t see any showstopper on my MacBook (TouchPad) and my desktop (Mighty and Magic Mouse).
So, in my opinion question is only about non-OSX impacts.

Wrt to pinch-to-zoom there seem to be changes in wxWidgets trunk.
I don’t know if we would like to patch until it has completely landed (wxWidgets needs to be patched anyway for OS X), or just wait with that until it has arrived in official versions.


Regards,
Bernhard
