Project Description
Multi-Touch Vista is a user input management layer that handles input from various devices (touchlib, multiple mice, TUIO etc.) and normalises it against the scale and rotation of the target window. Now with multitouch driver for Windows 7.

Welcome
Multi-Touch Vista is currently under development, when we have an alpha version ready we will add it to the release section. We currently do not have a roadmap with time scales; however we are working on one. If you are interested in joining the project as a developer, please create a thread in the Discussions section.

If you want to try out recent check-in please read this compile instructions.

And here you will find simple "Hello World" tutorial.

shacharweis — Thu, 21 May 2009 07:02:25 GMT

Hello everyone, I just managed to get the helloworld application running. I see nice green dots where I touch, but the "Hello World" textbox is very sluggish and its very hard to move it, it feels heavy and unresponsive. I dont understand why, are there some parameters to change this behavior ? Thanks, Shachar Weis.

I found the problem. "System.Collections.ObjectModel; and System.IO; need to be added to the .cs.

After following all of this I'm getting, "The type or namespace name 'ObservableCollection' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)" in the Window1.xaml.cs file There is just one error, however, none of the "(ObservableCollection)" lines are turning light-blue like in the screenshots above. I'm using Visual C# Express Edition -is this a limitation?

Project Description
Multi-Touch Vista is a user input management layer that handles input from various devices (touchlib, multiple mice, wii remotes etc.) and normalises it against the scale and rotation of the target window. It will allow standard applications to be scaled and rotated in a multi-touch style and receive standardised input. It will also provide a framework on which to build multi-input WPF applications.
It supports Windows Vista and XP.

Updated Wiki: How to compile

nesher — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 05:56:13 GMT

How to compile recent check-ins:

You will need .NET Framework 3.5 with Service Pack 1 and Visual Studio 2008 and Windows SDK to compile MultiTouchVista. It should work also with Express edition of Visual Studio but I didn't check this out.

Download one of the recent cheange sets and extract zip file.
You have to open and compile solutions in Visual Studio from Main Source folder in the following order:

Multitouch.InputProviders.sln
Multitouch.Service.sln
Multitouch.Configuration.sln
Multitouch.Framework.sln
Multitouch.Driver.sln

For Multitouch.Framework.sln you need Windows SDK installed.

Multitouch.Framework includes TestApplication project that you can use to play with the framework and see how to use it. But before you start this project you have to start Multitouch.Service.Console.exe located in folder Main Source\Output. After start you will see several (one for each attached mouse) mouse cursors with red dots. This is your emulated "fingers". Use this dots to interact with TestApplication.

If you don't want to start Multitouch.Service.Console.exe each time, you can install Multitouch.Service.exe as a Windows Service.
To do this run this line with elevated privileges: installutil.exe Multitouch.Service.exe. After this you can use Services in Control Panel to start and stop Multitouch input service.

Hope this helps you to get started. If you have any questions please post them in Discussions.
