PrecisionThreeFingerDrag VS cosmic-epoch

You may be interested in how I did my Windows script for adding three-finger drag[0].

Basically, it is an independent subscriber to RawInput messages that only keeps track of whether or not to send three-finger drag, and posts emulated mouse messages using SendInput. I have a few other scripts that each run as independent userland processes that only monitors their own trigger and nothing else.

Tangentially, not sure if this might serve for some inspiration, but my TPMouse[1] script implemented inertia in a framerate-independent way so that it uses very little resource while having perfect simulation stability.

A previous discussion where I explained the analytic derivation for this low-resource exact-solution damped inertia can be seen in [10]

You'll need to tick the "Other Human-Interface Devices" checkbox and untick Mouse and Keyboard, so that you don't get the driver-synthesized SendInput mouse reports flooding the outputs

Components of Cosmic Desktop Rust-based Desktop Environment: https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-epoch#components-of-cosmic-...

cosmic-comp/src/wayland/handlers

Ran git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-epoch

The repo readme has instructions for installing test builds.

I think there might be some confusion in this poll and thread -- COSMIC is the name of both a suite of components in Pop_Shell, which modifies (but does not replace) GNOME shell components like the dock and workspaces, as well as a full-fledged desktop environment that replaces GNOME.

system76 is using it to develop their new cosmic desktop environment for linux. The code is here https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-epoch

We'll see how it starts panning out this year or next.

I have compiled and installed cosmic to test and follow development - https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-epoch

See https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-epoch

I heard that the Iced version of COSMIC will allow horizontal and vertical workspaces: https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-epoch/issues/53
