Wanted: Screenshot of nightly Touchpad prefs (part 2)

Help
1

Same as a few years back, I need a touchpad prefs screenshot.

My touchpad isn’t recognized as such by the Input preferences. Therefore I can’t take a screenshot of them for the User Guide. I’m looking for someone with a correctly recognized touchpad on a nightly Haiku. The prefs panel needs to show the newly added Edge motion setting.

The system should use Haiku’s default theme with a font size of 10pt, the prefs should be the active window and no mouse pointer in the shot, please.

Should look similar to the current screenshot at:

Thanks a lot!

Oh, and is someone so kind as to take another screenshot with the same setting with the Locale prefs set to German?

Here is the screenshot with English locale: Making sure you're not a bot!
And here is it with German locale: Making sure you're not a bot!

Thanks very much!
Hmm… The German locale reveals a layouting issue due to the quite long “Edge motion” label.

Looks okay to me? seems to just be doing what the layout kit should do :slight_smile:

Looks like I need to touch up the german translation though, translating both settings as “beschleunigung” is super confusing.

Though, why are there two settings in the first place?

One’s for the scrolling acceleration (the one in the box with the bold “Scrolling” label), the other for the touchpad acceleration.

WRT the layouting, I’d expect the sliders in the scrolling box to get wider to fill the space between them and the touchpad representation to their left.

Can’t test now, but I’d say InputTouchpadPrefView.cpp:524 should be CreateHorizontalStrut, given it’s in a horizontal group.

What is the difference?

As my touchpad isn’t supported (other than as mouse) I’ll have to guess.
I’d say the acceleration in the “Scrolling” box is the acceleration of the scrolling when doing 2-finger scrolling or using those scrolling areas. The other “acceleration” controls the mouse pointer.

This should probably be massively simplified :confused:
