Hello, I'm new here.

I have a toshiba M7 convertible laptop tablet. In any mode but landscape primary (you flip the screen and can choose to have it in portrait mode to write on like a pad of paper) the tablet input still thinks it is in primary landscape or something and the axis' are all off so when i draw something with the calligraphy tool it is not where the cursor is. it works fine with the mouse. from what i have researched it has to do with inkscape (and the gimp) using the older wacom API as opposed to the newer HID that does not support rotate. Is there a workaround or fix for this? Maybe editing some variable to make it think it is always in portrait mode? I really don't want to have to go back to illustrator, but will have to if I have to turn my whole tablet around backwards to use it with the usb and lan ports all sticking at my stomach.

i am using windows xp tablet edition. does the custom linux wacom driver work with screen rotation? i could install linux if i had to. or is it hard coded in the program and have nothing really to do with the wacom driver?

Any help is appreciated,

Thank you

Devon
