Re: Sending events to the emulator

[Sylvain MARLIERE]

Hello Dan,

Did you tried this combination ?
It's likely to work.

event send
 EV_ABS:ABS_X:100
 EV_ABS:ABS_Y:100
 EV_ABS:ABS_PRESSURE:1
 EV_KEY:BTN_TOUCH:1
EV_SYN:SYN_REPORT:0
 EV_ABS:ABS_X:100
 EV_ABS:ABS_Y:100
 EV_ABS:ABS_PRESSURE:0
 EV_KEY:BTN_TOUCH:0
EV_SYN:SYN_REPORT:0

During a drag movement, (ABS_X,ABS_Y,ABS_PRESSURE) will be continously reported in a thread loop, but BTN_TOUCH will be only reported once at the beginning (=1) and once the end (=0) of the drag movement (when ABS_PRESSURE changes between zero or positive state).

event send (for starting to press at position 100,100)
 EV_ABS:ABS_X:100
 EV_ABS:ABS_Y:100
 EV_ABS:ABS_PRESSURE:1
 EV_KEY:BTN_TOUCH:1
EV_SYN:SYN_REPORT:0

event send (for drag movement from 100,100 to 104,104)
 EV_ABS:ABS_X:100
 EV_ABS:ABS_Y:100
 EV_ABS:ABS_PRESSURE:1
EV_SYN:SYN_REPORT:0
 EV_ABS:ABS_X:102
 EV_ABS:ABS_Y:102
 EV_ABS:ABS_PRESSURE:1
EV_SYN:SYN_REPORT:0
 EV_ABS:ABS_X:104
 EV_ABS:ABS_Y:104
 EV_ABS:ABS_PRESSURE:1
EV_SYN:SYN_REPORT:0

event send (for stopping to press at position 104,104)
 EV_ABS:ABS_X:104
 EV_ABS:ABS_Y:104
 EV_ABS:ABS_PRESSURE:0
 EV_KEY:BTN_TOUCH:0
EV_SYN:SYN_REPORT:0


Hope this helps.

Regards,
Sylvain
