For external tablets like the Intuos series we now expose the area rectangle configuration and the (minimum) implementation required to make this work. Because an area configuration may apply late and tablet events usually get scaled by the compositor we need to store the current axis extents in each event. This is to behave correctly in this events sequence: 1. tool proximity in 2. caller changes config, config is pending 3. tool moves, generates events 4. tool goes out of prox, new config applies 5. caller processes motion events from step 3 If the caller in step five uses any of the get_x_transformed calls these need to be scaled relative to the original area, not the one set in step 2. The current implementation merely clips into the area so moving a stylus outside the area will be equivalent to moving it along the respective edge of the area. It's not a true dead zone yet.

libinput
libinput is a library that provides a full input stack for display servers and other applications that need to handle input devices provided by the kernel.
libinput provides device detection, event handling and abstraction to minimize the amount of custom input code the user of libinput needs to provide the common set of functionality that users expect. Input event processing includes scaling touch coordinates, generating relative pointer events from touchpads, pointer acceleration, etc.
User documentation
