[Qt5-feedback] X11 mouse buttons in qt4, qt5, and KDE: please, PLEASE review this design.

[Иван Комиссаров]

As soon as we have only 10 fingers, it seems be sufficient:)

In fact, user can't press more than 5 buttons at the same time (if he has no more than 5 fingers on one hand, of course), so supporting device with 32+ buttons seems useless.
Using list of ints will receive a lot of memory for very frequent event. also we have to spent time to get buttons from list… I think int is best solution; in any case we can reserve -1 for using other mechanism (such a list)

Just wonder - can i receive apple magic mouse gestures in Qt (maybe using QGesture?) or not?

Yes, just like 640 kB will be sufficient for any reasonable use :-)
