Its more a hack than actually adding multi-touch on OS/Driver level. I might create a TUIO version in future which should allow you to use tDesk on Win7.

The iNexio multitouch is based on IRTouch and will be treated as singletouch by XP as fr as i know. what kind of touch are you using (is it self made?). Will your application be able to use my iNexio touch? Hi,

I have touchlib, and tDesk. And I'll ask again, will there be support for resistive touch screens with the mentioned software, (can it be done) a knowledgeable reply to both questions would be Greatly appreciated, I am sorta in a jam too, as I have an elo 5 wire resistive and am getting conflicting statements website to website whether multi touch is possible on it, (I Only need Two touch points), so I need to know these things to determine if I should keep it or sell it, to get an optical/infrared touchscreen. And worst of all I need this for DAW and I understand Resistive is most accurate for controlling sliders, buttons, etc, on soft synths and recording software, as the Neko from openlabs uses a elo resistive touch screen, and I do in fact find it to be pretty spot on. Is optical better for this? I really have a dilemma, and really need help. Thanks!! : ) !ERIK! Yes but what if the commercial display is optical/infrared?

Right now I have a 5 wire resistive form elo, will there be support for resistive 5 wire in the future? Thanks!

I've seen the MS windows multipoint SDK but I'm not sure if thats the way to implent multitouch...
