[vtkusers] Multi Touch input in VTK? (David Borland)

[David Borland]

I have written a vtkInteractionDevice library that includes code for 
interacting with some custom multi-touch devices developed in-house.  
It's probably not exactly what you want, but might be a good starting point.

You can find the code here:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hi, I don't think VTK haves 
a support in multi touch. To do this, have some issues coming from the 
multi platform approach. For example, I don 't know a support for multi 
touch in X11, which are used by a lot of UN*X platforms. Then, I think 
this support doesn't exist yet and will not coming soon. Regards, Wagner
