Cursor Stuck

[chrispycone]

Hello
I'm having this issue with my new laptop I got and I was expecting it not gonna lie
So on my old laptop it gave 5 contact devices for the trackpad at the top when I run the program. Absolutetouch worked flawlessly and had no issues. [acer aspire v15 nitro]

Contact for device 00020049: link=1, touchArea={0,0,1030,748}
Contact for device 00020049: link=2, touchArea={0,0,1030,748}
Contact for device 00020049: link=3, touchArea={0,0,1030,748}
Contact for device 00020049: link=4, touchArea={0,0,1030,748}
Contact for device 00020049: link=5, touchArea={0,0,1030,748}
Detected touchpad with handle 00020049
CreateWindowExW() -> hWnd=000308DA
RegisterRawInputDevices(mouse)

On my new laptop [ge66 raider], it only gives 1 contact device for the trackpad.
Here is what shows up on the attest

Contact for device 00020055: link=1, touchArea={0,0,402,244}
Detected touchpad with handle 00020055
CreateWindowExW() -> hWnd=000606A6
RegisterRawInputDevices(mouse)

and as I expected when I did it with the actual program and osu! and went into absolute mode the cursor didn't move. It started clicking a bunch of things (mostly exit) or scrolling on the song selection nonstop. Is there any way I could fix this with a driver/software update? Or any other way?
If not any other way?

or am I shit outta luck with this.

yeah i dont think its going to be fixed anytime soon they stopped updating this app since 2019

[chrispycone]

Yeah it’s unfortunate so I’ll just have to learn mouse again and relative trackpad

Sorry, I was meaning to get around to this but never had the time. Truth be told I'd love to fix this, the only problem is that I don't have any devices to reproduce the issue on so any debugging attempts are just blind trial and error. I've attached a build that disables device caching which is my only guess at what the issue could be, can you run atloader.exe by itself, enable raw input mode (with shift-f6) and see if the recognized contacts change in any way?

diag.zip

If this doesn't help, I'm all out of ideas. We're just using the APIs that Windows gives us, if they don't work then either the API or the device is broken. It would be immensely helpful if you could figure out how to dump the HID descriptor of your touchpad (I tried finding a tool for this but it seems like they're all Linux-only)

hey it's been a bit and I just didn't know at the time how to dump them but I managed to get them. if you're still able to help, that would be nice. If you aren't that's also fine. I did get my trackpad descriptor according to this one website.

According to https://eleccelerator.com/usbdescreqparser/ ; this is my trackpad's descriptor
04F3:30AA: Microsoft - HIDI2C Device

There was also something with the same name as the trackpad, "04F3:30AA: Microsoft - HIDI2C Device" I tried figuring out what the usage was using that website, but It wouldn't give me a clear answer. So I hope this has a use to you.

I'm also attaching an old log I used from diag.zip

Hi, i have Acer ES1-533, ELAN touchpad.
diag.txt

[BK8000L]

i have found this program, it can read my touchpad with no problems! maybe it could help
https://github.com/emoacht/RawInput.Touchpad

1 finger means contact ID:0, 2 finger means contact ID:1...
screenshot of the creator is slightly different from mine, he has all contacts at once, I have only one contact that changes the ID.

[chrispycone]

I doubt you still look at this dev but I used the program above me and this was the log it made.
Just by glancing at it, my trackpad doesn't react very good with multiple fingers on it causing it to spaz out between contact id 0 and whatever number of fingers.

looks fine to me. Do you have a discord or osu account? we could talk, my discord is "0ka#5689" and osu account is "0ka"
