wxpython and multi-touch

wxPython Users

hi all, I've been asked to port a little wxpython application
originally developed for winXP to a device like Eee PC T91MT (netbook
multitouch). I would like to know
- if wxpython supports touch screens and to what extent
- if I have to use a specific API for the screen touching or if it is
the same of the mouse
- if other libraries are needed

thanks in advance

Marco

Only as far as the touch events are converted to mouse events.

I'm using wxPython on a Panasonic Toughbook and it works fine so far.
Of course, for my needs, I only need single-touch rather than multi-
touch and the former definitely works just fine.

"PyMT is a python module for developing multi-touch enabled media rich
applications. Currently the aim is to allow for quick and easy
interaction design and rapid prototype development." Not sure if it
integrates with wxpython.

Hmmm...looks like it uses pyglet. I don't think I've seen anything on
here about pyglet + wxpython. I think this project looks pretty cool
though. Makes me wish I had a multi-touch screen of some sort.
