I really like the idea to use a touch screen to control the virtual console. And it works of course. But it's not possible to control multiple sliders at the same time using two fingers, because the pointer ends up between the fingers. Does anybody have any solution to this. Is it possible or does the touch screen simply don't work that way?

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
A standard ELO type Point of Sale touchscreen only has one Cursor point. You would need to invest in a Capacitive Multi Touch screen... like this Acer T272HL
This is the monitor we have... It acts as a secondary mouse. It doesn't seem to work like a multitouch video game would. I posted a feature request. Perhaps multitouch is already built in and we just don't know how to make it function?

Looking for the same solution. Just picked up a 10 point Acer monitor and it still only functions as one point.... solutions?

Or, alternatively, you can set up a VNC server on your system and VNC in with an iPad or Android tablet, which has multi-touch compatibility...
Now, after reviewing the info I found... I realize that I cannot define an answer for this thread... ;) Sorry
