NAME
     libinput-measure-touchpad-size - measure the size of a touchpad

SYNOPSIS
     libinput measure touchpad-size [--help] WxH [/dev/input/event0]

DESCRIPTION
     The  libinput  measure  touchpad-size tool measures the size of a touchpad.
     This is an interactive tool. When executed, the tool will prompt  the  user
     to  interact with the touchpad. The tool records the axis ranges and calcu-
     lates the size and resolution based on  those.  On  termination,  the  tool
     prints a hwdb entry that can be added to the 60-evdev.hwdb file provided by
     system.

     For  details  see	the online documentation here: https://wayland.freedesk-
     top.org/libinput/doc/latest/absolute-coordinate-ranges.html

     This is a debugging tool only, its output may change at any  time.  Do  not
     rely on the output.

     This  tool  usually  needs to be run as root to have access to the /dev/in-
     put/eventX nodes.

OPTIONS
     This tool must be provided the physical dimensions of  the  device  in  mm.
     For example, if your touchpad is 100mm wide and 55mm high, run this tool as
     libinput measure touchpad-size 100x55

     If  a  device  node  is given, this tool opens that device node. Otherwise,
     this tool searches for the first node that looks like a touchpad  and  uses
     that node.
