Description Martin Renold 2010-11-16 18:58:36 UTC 
Original bugreport: https://gna.org/bugs/?17084

The original reporter is using a Graphire ET-0405-U on NetBSD. In MyPaint we call gdk_event_get_axis() for GDK_AXIS_XTILT and GDK_AXIS_YTILT (through PyGTK). This returns TRUE for this tablet but we get infinity as tilt value.

Going to do a workaround in MyPaint. But I feel we have a bit too many such workarounds already, so I test whether it's useful to report such bugs here.
Comment 1 Martin Renold 2010-11-18 18:29:55 UTC 
Small correction: the value we get is "nan", not "infinity".

We're moving to gitlab! As part of this move, we are closing bugs that haven't seen activity in more than 5 years. If this issue is still imporant to you and
still relevant with GTK+ 3.22 or master, please consider creating a gitlab issue
for it.
