bluetooth mouse compatibility. #200

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
it is possible to use a Bluetooth mouse with some custom roms and android-x86. 
But the right mouse buttonis mapped to back.

I propose that either the ability to change key maps or full support for mice 
is implemented.

In Android 3.1 bluetooth mouse is supported. It would be nice to have in VNC 
Viewer - right click and ability to drag.

I'd like to add to this concern regarding bluetoot mouse support. I love this 
program and this fix would make it use-able as a full fledge computer!

PS. you don't need to add the actual blue tooth support. Only change how the 
mouse responds.

IE the "Mouse Pointer Control Mode" does almost what it needs to. Only thing it 
has left click all the time on as its mean't for touch screen, does not work 
good with a real mouse :)

I *may* have fixed this as part of my fiddling to get the Asus Transformer 
trackpad working. 
I don't have a BT mouse though... it works with USB ones so might well work... 
If you're happy to test drop me a mail and I'll send you a link to a beta 
build. Please tell me what device/OS version you have, and confirm that RMB 
does 'Back' now.

Tried to use a bluetooth mouse with vnc-viewer; None of the input types really 
work perfectly with a bluetooth mouse. VNC is "usable" but certain things 
needing mouse-hovering or moving of mouse to certain positions, but not 
clicking (like navigating through a start menu items, selecting/browsing but 
not clicking to start programs yet) doesn't work well.

The bluetooth mouse cursor shows up in vnc-viewer, but does not get transmitted 
to the other side, so the server do not see mouse movements. Only when a mouse 
click is pushed, then the position gets transmitted. Thus, things like hover or 
mouse-movement  do not work.

Also, the middle mouse wheel (for scroll through pages in a browser, etc), do 
not get transmitted over to the other side either...

In contrast, in a regular VNC viewer in a PC, the wheel scrolls do get 
transmitted.

Thanks.

Maybe I am missing something, but when I connect a bluetooth mouse to my 4.2 
tablet, I have the "device" mouse pointer and the separate emulated VNC 
pointer. Is there a way to configure VNC viewer to simply follow the mouse?

I think that's the way it is. Android the OS puts up the local mouse pointer 
when you plug the mouse in and according to StackOverflow there's currently no 
way to hide it.
I don't think I've seen any VNC client anywhere hide the remote pointer, but 
that's usually the one you don't want to hide because it changes shape when you 
hover over things e.g. window borders.

Maybe Google will add a way to hide it in some future Android update. Or maybe 
you can in some custom ROM but I don't know of one.

As today 30 Jan 2015, this problem hasn't been fixed yet.
Using the words of another user:
"The bluetooth mouse cursor shows up in vnc-viewer, but does not get 
transmitted to the other side, so the server do not see mouse movements. Only 
when a mouse click is pushed, then the position gets transmitted. Thus, things 
like hover or mouse-movement  do not work."

It's a real pity, since with today tables, we could control a remote PC like 
having a real one on the tablet... only if the mouse would work properly.
