= Feature definition for Wacom scripts =

== Description ==

Add scripts or better detailed settings for wacom tablets. (most tablet work out of the box, but the settings we provide are very minimalistic)

== Technical Implementation ==

(add one here)

app level thoughts: 
 * ideally needs a way to deal with switching layouts automatically based on application used
 * link to calibrator for cintiq users
  * There is one here, ([[https://github.com/tias/xinput_calibrator|xinput-calibrator]] ALso in repos and seems to works fine as of 16.04
 * for button mapping, can be very hard because it is not obvious from xset button what buttons mean
  * [[https://github.com/lubosz/wacom-utility | the old wacom utility]] is still around in some form
 and function even though nobody has made it to a package in a while in my knowledge. (you can test it by downloading the repos and executing wacom_utility.py) 
 * NEW: active project that currently works: [[https://github.com/Zeioth/XFCE-Wacom-Settings | Gnome wacom settings in XFCE]]
  * author is apparently working on porting the settings in actual XFCE
  * Gnome wacom settings are pretty limited (no presets. also I think no keymapping)
    * edit (2017): actually the screenshot shows button mapping
proof of concept commandline script
 * todo: handle nouveau naming of screens
 * todo: handle more screens
 * todo: allow user to set their defaults
 * todo: implement the key setup (including handling many wacom layouts, and multiple layouts per wacom to swap between)
 * todo: generally, a lot of things are hardcoded here.
