We had other use-cases where unity8 having control over mouse position was useful. One example coming to mind is phone docked to an external display, we wanted to limit the cursor to the external display only. And we had a few other pie-in-the-sky design ideas which would be much easier if unity8 had cursor control. I still don't see why Mir can't just let Unity8 (a nested) position the cursor (like it could, if it were a host server)! And absolute vs relative. If we're doing it wrong, we can fix it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670670 Title: Unity8 pointer does not stay in sync with Qemu VM tablet input To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1670670/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
