+ <description summary="Wayland protocol for graphics tablets">
+ This description provides a high-level overview of the interplay between
+ the interfaces defined this protocol. For details, see the protocol
+ specification.
+
+ More than one tablet may exist, and device-specifics matter. Tablets are
+ not represented by a single virtual device like wl_pointer. A client
+ binds to the tablet manager object which is just a proxy object. From
+ that, the client requests wp_tablet_manager.get_tablet_seat(wl_seat)
+ and that returns the actual interface that has all the tablets. With
+ this indirection, we can avoid merging wp_tablet into the actual Wayland
+ protocol, a long-term benefit.
+
+ The wp_tablet_seat sends a "tablet added" event for each tablet
+ connected. That event is followed by descriptive events about the
+ hardware; currently that includes events for name, vid/pid and
+ a wp_tablet.path event that describes a local path. This path can be
+ used to uniquely identify a tablet or get more information through
+ libwacom. Emulated or nested tablets can skip any of those, e.g. a
+ virtual tablet may not have a vid/pid. The sequence of descriptive
+ events is terminated by a wp_tablet.done event to signal that a client
+ may now finalize any initialization for that tablet.
+
+ Events from tablets require a tool in proximity. Tools are also managed
+ by the tablet seat; a "tool added" event is sent whenever a tool is new
+ to the compositor. That event is followed by a number of descriptive
+ events about the hardware; currently that includes capabilities,
+ hardware id and serial number, and tool type. Similar to the tablet
+ interface, a wp_tablet_tool.done event is sent to terminate that initial
+ sequence.
+
+ Any event from a tool happens on the wp_tablet_tool interface. When the
+ tool gets into proximity of the tablet, a proximity_in event is sent on
+ the wp_tablet_tool interface, listing the tablet and the surface. That
+ event is followed by a motion event with the coordinates. After that,
+ it's the usual motion, axis, button, etc. events. The protocol's
+ serialisation means events are grouped by wp_tablet_tool.frame events.
+
+ Two special events (that don't exist in X) are down and up. They signal
+ "tip touching the surface". For tablets without real proximity
+ detection, the sequence is: proximity_in, motion, down, frame.
+
+ When the tool leaves proximity, a proximity_out event is sent. If any
+ button is still down, a button release event is sent before this
+ proximity event. These button events are sent in the same frame as the
+ proximity event to signal to the client that the buttons were held when
+ the tool left proximity.
+
+ If the tool moves out of the surface but stays in proximity (i.e.
+ between windows), compositor-specific grab policies apply. This usually
+ means that the proximity-out is delayed until all buttons are released.
+
+ Moving a tool physically from one tablet to the other has no real effect
+ on the protocol, since we already have the tool object from the "tool
+ added" event. All the information is already there and the proximity
+ events on both tablets are all a client needs to reconstruct what
+ happened.
+
+ Some extra axes are normalized, i.e. the client knows the range as
+ specified in the protocol (e.g. [0, 65535]), the granularity however is
+ unknown. The current normalized axes are pressure, distance, and slider.
+
+ Other extra axes are in physical units as specified in the protocol.
+ The current extra axes with physical units are tilt, rotation and
+ wheel rotation.
+
+ Since tablets work independently of the pointer controlled by the mouse,
+ the focus handling is independent too and controlled by proximity.
+ The wp_tablet_tool.set_cursor request sets a tool-specific cursor.
+ This cursor surface may be the same as the mouse cursor, and it may be
+ the same across tools but it is possible to be more fine-grained. For
+ example, a client may set different cursors for the pen and eraser.
+
+ Tools are generally independent of tablets and it is
+ compositor-specific policy when a tool can be removed. Common approaches
+ will likely include some form of removing a tool when all tablets the
+ tool was used on are removed.
+
+ Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and
+ backward incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes
+ may be added together with the corresponding interface version bump.
+ Backward incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in
+ the protocol and interface names and resetting the interface version.
+ Once the protocol is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the
+ version number in the protocol and interface names are removed and the
+ interface version number is reset.

+
+ A wp_tablet_tool object's relation to a physical tool depends on the
+ tablet's ability to report serial numbers. If the tablet supports
+ this capability, then the object represents a specific physical tool
+ and can be identified even when used on multiple tablets.
+
+ A tablet tool has a number of static characteristics, e.g. tool type,
+ hardware_serial and capabilities. These capabilities are sent in an

+ Sets the surface of the cursor used for this tool on the given

+ is the current pointer surface. If there was a previous surface set
+ with this request it is replaced. If surface is NULL, the cursor
+ image is hidden.
+
+ The parameters hotspot_x and hotspot_y define the position of the
+ pointer surface relative to the pointer location. Its top-left corner
+ is always at (x, y) - (hotspot_x, hotspot_y), where (x, y) are the
+ coordinates of the pointer location, in surface-local coordinates.
+
+ On surface.attach requests to the pointer surface, hotspot_x and
+ hotspot_y are decremented by the x and y parameters passed to the
+ request. Attach must be confirmed by wl_surface.commit as usual.
+
+ The hotspot can also be updated by passing the currently set pointer
+ surface to this request with new values for hotspot_x and hotspot_y.
+
+ The current and pending input regions of the wl_surface are cleared,
+ and wl_surface.set_input_region is ignored until the wl_surface is no
+ longer used as the cursor. When the use as a cursor ends, the current
+ and pending input regions become undefined, and the wl_surface is
+ unmapped.
+
+ This request gives the surface the role of a cursor. The role
+ assigned by this request is the same as assigned by
+ wl_pointer.set_cursor meaning the same surface can be
+ used both as a wl_pointer cursor and a wp_tablet cursor. If the
+ surface already has another role, it raises a protocol error.
+ The surface may be used on multiple tablets and across multiple
+ seats.
