ugh sounds complicated. thanks @pulsar33 for writing this up! do you see a difference in this dead zone / offset behaviour between touch and mouse? I probably need to play with this myself to understand.

Ok, I think I can reproduce this

It seems to me that every click or touch in the "dead zone" is interpreted as a click on that red line. So, it is always shifted.

When I adjust the dpi value so that the imaginary red line falls on highlighting selector ("Texte brut") and then I aim at "INS" the click will land on the "Texte brut"
When I open a text document full of text and start selecting text, I can move around as I want, except when I move into the "dead zone" then the selection only reaches to the red line and not further to the right.

You say you have no dead zone with 180 - can you describe how you determine that in gedit?

fwiw, it seems to me to be an issue in xmir. when I run cnee --record --mouse in lxterminal, I see that the x coordinate (third column) never goes higher than 1199 on my Nexus 7 (7 inch, 800 x 1280 pixels). thats the same in landscape, portrait, upside down portrait. also in windowed mode. then one can also nicely see that the offset is from the left of the window, not the screen.

another way to check is with xournal

I am not saying that these errors are due to LTT but simply that LTT highlights them and in some cases the applications become unusable

An issue exists since 3 years !
However, my understanding described above is not exactly the same as @dobey or @rodney

@pulsar33 said in Libertine Tweak Tool:

In fact, the dead zone is not dead, there is an offset between the mouse position and the widget grid of the application. And this depends on the Xdpi setting.

It seems to me that there's only a mismatch between the "display grid" and the "mouse grid"

Mhm, yeah, I could imagine that xmir issues are close towards the end of a long list of other priorities Thanks for sharing the link!

strange. I think my observation matches more closely with the issue you linked

I'm not sure if you're referring to the sole comment under the report about portrait width, but it was not my observation. The issue was imported from GitHub, and the comment starts off stating the GitHub username which made the comment originally.
