QUESTION:
Where can I find detailed information on the AIXwindow programming
extensions for driving Tablets ?
---------- ---------- ---------- --------- ---------- ----------
A: There is detailed information on the AIXWindow programming
extensions in InfoExplorer. I used the search words "extension", and
"tablet" to compile a list of articles relative to the subject. The
main articles come from the following books(which should be contained in
InfoExplorer):
* Technical Reference, Volume 8: User Interface(SC23-2389-01)
"List of Enhanced X-Windows Protocols, Toolkit, and Extension
Functions"
* Technical Reference, Volume 7: User Interface(SC23-2388-01)
* User Interface Programming Concepts, Volume 1:(SC23-2404-01)
"Using Extensions in Enhanced X-Windows"
According to InfoExplorer, there are some tablet support Extension
Functions that are provided for backward compatibility only. Programmers
writing new applications should use the X Input Extension functions
instead. I will provide this list of backward compatible tablet
support functions:
XGetTabletAttributes XGetTabletControl XGetTabletMotionEvents
XQueryTabletMotionEvents XQueryTabletState XSelectTabletInput
XSetTabletAttributes XSetTabletControl
InfoExplorer will have a complete list of the X Input Extension
Functions. I will list a few of these functions:
AllowDeviceEvents ChangeDeviceControl
ChangeDeviceDontPropagateList ChangeDeviceKeyMapping
ChangeFeedbackControlChangeKeyboardDevice
Please reference the articles above, plus other InfoExplorer articles
from the info "List of Titles" generated from a compound search. This
should provide the necessary details about the tablet extensions.
