happy?

how about some explanations

>>51522596
Hmm, on my x220t with kubuntu, pinch to zoom works fine on the touch screen. Hell, the pen even works well.
Nice try though
>>
>>51522988

does it work on the touchpad

no?

didn't think so

>>51522607

the trackpoint is to the trackpad what mechanical keyboards are to rubber dome boards

it's the better tech, and it's the older tech

fuck off

srs though, libinput says pinch gestures are in the latest releases, but I can't work out how to make it work.

I own a Thinkpad myself, autist. How do you pinch in/out with one hand and the trackpoint on your couch ?

>Option “HorizTwoFingerScroll” “on”
At least i don't have to download a 150mb tocuhpad driver that barely works on Windows, This is the main reason i use Ubuntu on my notenook, the touchpad drivers on Windows are a mess.

I don't get it
>>
even the cheapest phones were able to detect 5+ touch points since years ago
then why is pinch to zoom the only function to ever make use of it?
>>
>>51523366
The fuck do you need zoom on laptop you fucking retard? I can understand zoom on smartphone because you can't see shit on those tiny ant displays, but laptops are different story.
Or do you just feel a need to pinch things?
>>
>>51523366
If I'm in image software that uses scrolling for zoom, the motions to do scrolling with a trackpoint are fucking identical to pinch to zoom.
>>
>>51523423
>two finger scroll

try again idiot

Really? The year is 2015 and nobody has added thumbnails to the Gnome file picker yet.

I can do that on my meme alienware touchpad. Also scrolling with two fingers, macfag style.
>>
>>51523446
What custom rom and keyboard app are those? Is that keyboard simply a skin for SwiftKey? Absolutely love the typeface (is that Ubuntu Family Fonts?) and the color scheme.

I thought that Gnome3 supports it

>>51523366
Using ubuntu right now, holding super+scroll wheel zooms, and pinching on a trackpad scrolls.

Therefore super+pinch is for zoom.

>>51522596
but I can.

>>51525948

Krita can't even support multi-touch. even ms paint can support multi-touch.
