Do you agree? Hi Nick, Sorry for the delay in getting back on this - year end crunch time ate up a lot of cycles. Anyway, I'm inclined to agree with you that there is a unit mixup. There's several F12 Control registers under Crtl8, and for no apparent good reason (well, as far as I can see), none of them use the same units & formatting. Here's what I've got in my copy of the spec (which is labeled as a draft, and so might not match the firmware 100%): coordinate limits: 16 bit fields in integer reported coordinate values. sensor pitch: 16 bit fields, tx and rx pitch in millimenters in Q4.12 fixed point. inactive border width (clipping values): - if registers are 1 byte, they are in units of 1/128th of the corresponding tx/rx sensor pitch. - if registers are 2 bytes, they are width in millimeters in 8.8 fixed point. This last one is rather confusing, and quite probably the result of the issue you're seeing. My spec has markup consistent with this being changed in that draft, but changed from what to what isn't exactly clear. Unfortunately, it's a day off and the spec author isn't available at the moment as is the rest of the firmware team, so there's no-one to ask for clarification. If you can send me a firmware build ID for the sensor or sensors that are displaying this issue, I can check the sources and try to verify what the units in question are. > > I think there's another minor issue in that we should be passing > sensor->min_x to input_set_abs_params(ABS_MT_POSITION_X).
