@sdetweil Why would I change back when my code works with the current version. General concept MM should be don’t require a crap ton of customization just to make it work. Making users who may want to use this switch to a different windowing system doesn’t really make sense. Especially since I’m sure RPi will eventually remove X11.

@sdetweil said in Touchscreen Family Dashboard:

did you change OS levels since it last appeared to work?

First time I’m using it is this week, so it would appear I’m using labwc.

All I know is that the old KeyPress module wasn’t working and doing a console debug in electron was showing no touchevents being sent, only pointer events.

I was having issues with the calendar swipe feature not working. The keypress would work fine though. Looks like the new version of Electron has removed touchevents and changed to pointerdown and pointerup.

I forked the original and made the changes: https://github.com/B3DTech/MMM-KeyPress

I’m looking at cleaning up code in the add event module to remove some of the hard-coded customizations in the original. They are very much customized to the original creator with family names and icons hard coded. For the most part, that isn’t needed in a general framework for just adding events.

I am also looking at merging the code into the latest version of MMM-CalendarExt3 since it’s so far behind now.

It’s a slow work in progress. If anyone else has some time and wants to help out let me know.
