Description enkithan 2008-06-23 21:22:55 UTC
Version:           trunk (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.1 
OS:                Linux

using:
archlinux i686
qt-copy 819958
kdelibs4 trunk 822761
koffice2 svn 823507
wacom intuos 3

When I use the stylus of my tablet on the canvas/page/viewport, 2nd and 3rd buttons act as 1st button 

Exemple: Instead of showing the right clic menu, the current tool is used; but if I right-click on any elements of the UI, right click works.

What is interesting is that the intuos3 mouse works as expected.

can you confirm that this problem still exist in koffice2?
Comment 2 enkithan 2009-04-05 12:00:37 UTC
yeah the bug still happens here, using qt4.5, kde 4.2.2 and koffice trunk.

I think it's a koffice-only bug, since 2nd & 3rd buttons works fine in all others Qt/KDE apps I tried.
Comment 3 Thomas Zander 2009-04-05 12:12:32 UTC
You might want to check if you have libwacomcfg.so* installed. (package wacom-tools on debian) That helps Qt detecting exactly which pen/stylus etc you are using.
Comment 4 enkithan 2009-04-05 13:33:04 UTC
Yes, I have the file, it's installed with linuxwacom drivers on my distrib.

Just found something interesting: the bug also happens with Koffice beta3 on WindowsXP.

2nd & 3rd buttons of the stylus simply don't do anything for me in the canvas, they do work in other parts of the gui, so I can sort of confirm, I have Bamboo Fun tablet, tablet mouse works.
Comment 6 Thomas Zander 2009-10-12 11:04:37 UTC
Is this still a problem?
Comment 7 enkithan 2009-10-12 11:56:36 UTC
Yes :/
to be more precise, stylus buttons behave like the tip at minimum pressure.

Thank you for your bug report or feature suggestion.

The "KOffice" application suite is no longer maintained, and all tickets are now closed.

We recommend to switch to the "Calligra" application suite, which has replacements for all unmaintained KOffice applications:

- KWord was replaced with Calligra Words
- KPlato was replaced with Calligra Plan

For more information, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calligra_Suite
