configure external touchmonitor on phone as absolute input
-
Situation:
- 10-point touchable monitor (4K uperfect) connected by USB-C to UT-Phone
- detected as external touch device + a external monitor
- touch events are handled in relative positioning like withe a external mouse
- missing touch to drag
Expectation (feature/wish):
- touch monitor touch events are handled in absolute coordinates
- touch to drag
- play Solitaire on touch monitor

Unfortunately, UT doesn't yet support correctly mapping a second touchscreen display. I already asked this to the Mir developers and they still don't support it in recent versions, at least during that time which was a year or months ago.
I actually discovered that even Gnome has this issue. I only got KDE Plasma to work properly woth 2 touchscreen displays

@kugiigi in my case I would expect more kind of replacement of the phones display. As everything should work like on a tablet. The phone becomes a computer and does not need to power its monitor. Displaying, typing and drag & move and other gestures are handled by the attached external touchscreen. So my idea about this phone -> tablet convergence feature.
Do you run KDE Plasma on Ubuntu Touch? Can you switch between both?
