Bug or Regression?

Bug

Description

Trying to transform tablet orientation doesn't change anything when changing the value between 0-7. relative_input variable works so I should be targeting the correct device.

How to reproduce

Use a drawing board and change input:tablet:transform variable, nothing happens

Crash reports, logs, images, videos

sameproblem, for touchscreen

Having a similar issue. This is a regression, looks like it was https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/commit/13f6f0b923ff3ec94a3bec886c28b90402ceef91 that broke it

Also stopped working for me, though I can't say around when more precicely (some time in the last months) I used to have a working service that took the orientation from iio sensors and applied it via:

monitor-sensor \
  | awk ' $4 ~ /bottom-up/ { print "2" }; $4 ~ /left-up/ { print "1" }; $4 ~ /normal/ { print "0" }; $4 ~ /right-up/ { print "3" }; { system("") };' \
          | xargs -rI{} hyprctl --batch "keyword device:elan2514:00-04f3:29f5:transform {} ; keyword device:elan2514:00-04f3:29f5-stylus:transform {} ; keyword monitor eDP-1,transform,{}"

Isolated:

> hyprctl --batch "keyword touch:elan2514:00-04f3:29f5:transform 3"
config option <touch:elan2514:00-04f3:29f5:transform> does not exist.

@thejch would this help to confirm that the culprit is the commit you pointed out?

Seems that the config syntax has changed. Try keyword input:touchdevice:transform 3

@thejch Thanks, that works!

[vaxerski]

wait so is this actually a problem or just people not updating their config?

[asiantuntija]

Reading wiki this should work?

input {
tablet {
      relative_input = true
      transform = 5
 }
}

Relative input works but transform doesn't. I also tried under touchdevice but that did nothing either, anything I'm missing here?

edit: hyprctl devices

Tablets:
    Tablet at 5ebd26e33e60:
        wacom-one-by-wacom-m-pen

edit2: I tried mapping a region for the tablet, that worked, but after removing the setting from the config file the region stays active and doesn't get returned to 0,0 and full size.

edit3: Also probably not related to https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/5172 as input:tablet:transform doesn't work but input:tablet:relative_output works.

[asiantuntija]

https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/pull/5178 works for my use case, however there might be some situations where you would like to turn the tablet 90 degrees and get it flipped etc, so fixing this at some point might be a good idea.
