Touch Pads
Posted: Wed Jan 05, 2011 09:28 PM

With the release of new Windows touchpad devices ( CES show this week, etc. ), has anyone done programming in FWH that might work on these devices ? Any suggestions on resources for this topic ?

Thanks - just exploring mobility options to extend my clients productivity.

Happy new year Tim and all

Yes I'm interested in this subject too.

Seems windows drivers have been available for a couple of years. Is the hardware playing catch up? Touch pads normally respond to single finger movements whereas it needs to respond to multiple finger movements.

Interesting presentation at

Windows 7 has these drivers built in in seems. We probably need an expert in C to write code to access the drivers.
