Support touchscreen input

[flipflop97]

My laptop has a touch screen but trying to control my phone with it doesn't seem to do anything at all. It would be nice if touch input was also supported.

Hmm, I thought a touch screen just generated mouse events.

Does it work with a mouse?

Works with a mouse. Touchscreen is just flat out ignored. Acts as a mouse elsewhere which is weird. It still shows the cursor going over the scrcpy window but tapping/dragging does nothing.

I guess you need to catch https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDL_TouchFingerEvent
https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDL_MouseMotionEvent#Remarks does say that mouse motion can have a touch input as source so it seems consistent with the fact that moving works and not clicking.

I had the same issue on Linux and an external touch monitor. As a workaround you can use Touchégg with some configuration and additional gesture
<gesture type="TAP" fingers="1" direction=""> <action type="MOUSE_CLICK">BUTTON=1</action> </gesture>

Any update on this?
