Hey, this is a definite improvement on the touchscreen. Tested on x50v and booting good, still some problems but the 1/4" offset is gone. Some screens seem hard to close like the program isn't getting the 'tap' from the screen but the 'x' box highlights as it should when tapped. Also some progs/screens appear to 'lock up' requiring a reset to get out of.
Rebooting again to check it out better, Thanks Stavros
As this is the same image I used before I looked at the default.txt which has some different settings, Is this why the offset is gone?
Sorry I'm no help with programing or development but am willing to test.
