Bug ID: 490975
Summary: Allow rebinding tablet pen buttons to other tablet pen
buttons
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_tablet
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: darkdefe...@gmail.com
CC: aleix...@kde.org, j...@redstrate.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
It is currently possible to rebind tablet pen buttons to mouse buttons by
editing some KDE configuration files.
However rebinding the tablet pen buttons to mouse events has some downsides as
certain applications (like GIMP and Blender) treat mouse events differently
than tablet pen events.
A very common use case is to switch around the two pen buttons on the pen grip
(this is available as a toggle in Gnome).
This is currently not possible in Plasma (without getting unintended
side-effects by mapping them to mouse buttons).
OBSERVED RESULT
The end user is only able to remap the tablet pen buttons to keyboard or mouse
events.
EXPECTED RESULT
The end user is able to remap the tablet pen buttons to other tablet pen
buttons
For example remap "Pen button 1" to "Pen button 2" so when they press "Pen
button 1" on the physical pen, Plasma sends "Pen button 2" to the applications.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
