Touch screen setup GUI

John,

How is your touch screen working for you? Can you tell me what model you have? To use the monitor with Touchy instead of Axis, is it as simple as changing the 'Display = Touchy' in the .ini file?

Thank you

I have two ELO touch screens and both are Intellitouch models with both serial and USB. The one on the BP is an ELO 1515L Model # E700813.

Not quite that simple, to use Touchy it requires at least two hardwired buttons to work and a MPG of some sort to jog.

I used Evtouch to connect the touch part to Ubuntu and had to hand edit the config file to get the XY scale correct.

Thank you, I will have to look into Evtouch to see what that is. Would you be interested in sharing what you had to do to the config file when/if I get to that stage?

Thanks again!

I always share...

John

Hey John,
Got my Elo 1515L the other day and struggled to follow the directions to install the driver from the Elo website, but I believe that I have it installed correctly. Is there a setting that I missed to be able to single tap a folder or program icon to open it instead of double tapping? Also, what is the secret to using scroll bars? They don't seem to be very responsive.
Any other tips would be appreciated. Thanks

I followed the instructions to use Evtouch here

Go to Places > Home to open the file browser then Edit > Preferences > Behavior to select single click.

When you touch the screen does the pointer appear centered under your finger?
