I've created some basic input device pressure and tilt support.
That's very interesting. Unfortunately I can't test it - I see "No extended input devices" both in Inkscape and in Gimp. Something misconfigured in my system perhaps. Is there anyone knowing this stuff well, who could help me debug it?
If you are running X11 on linux and if you are using a Wacom tablet, maybe i can help.
The changes are:
- A standard input device dialog has been added
Why is it a separate dialog and not a tab in the Inkscape Preferences, as would be more logical?
It's a standard GTK dialog, and it was easiest to use it. Ideally it should be replaced with an interface that doesn't behave as unusually as it does. (Changes in any widget in the dialog affect the device configuration immediately. Changes normally aren't saved between sessions unless you press the Save-button.)
In the Gimp, the dialog is accessible from a button on a tab in the preferences dialog. Perhaps something similar is better then having it straight in the file-menu?
Also, can you gray out the width/angle controls in the calligraphic tool when they have no effect, being taken from pressure/tilt?
A good idea. The patch has been updated so that the angle spinbox will be grayed out when tilt sensitivity is active.
