Hi,

I don't know whether only Wacom tablets are supported? I don't know how it is
managed (I install the deb package from TeXmacs website. I don't know whether
it has Qt5 support).

The problem is that I don't know how to tell whether a specific tablet is
"supported". When I connect my tablet, it always works as a mouse. I see that
when I draw the pictures in xournalpp, the thickness of stripe changes as my pressure
changes. I don't see the same phenomenon in TeXmacs.

Best,
Frank

(very large by default)

Hi Frank,

know where I can test the functionality.

If you have a tablet, then you may test it in graphics mode,
by selecting the hand drawn curves mode.
You need the Qt5 version if my memory is correct.
The advantage of a drawing tablet is that the coordinate resolution
is more precise (on my tablet they are 1/16-th of a pixel).

On the other hand, is there any easy way to delete handwrites (for example,
delete the objects in a selected region)?

You mean removing all "draw overs" in a selection?
That has not been implemented, but could be done if
there is enough demand.

Best wishes, --Joris
