Asus laptop and pen and xournal and xournal++ behavior

[Gianluca Cecchi <gianluca.cecchi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I have an Asus Zenbook Flip (UX370UAR.310 from dmidecode) and Fedora 34 fully updated.

I'm trying the stylus pen provided with the notebook after a long time (Mathematics teaching in distance to my nephew... ;-).

I'm seeing that from inside the xournal application I can use my finger to draw inside the page when selecting the pen icon, while the stylus doesn't work.

Instead in xournal++ (that I discovered in a thread some days ago... I never used it..) I have the opposite: the finger doesn't work and the stylus works well (also the different pressure generates a thicker sign)

Is there a particular setting to enable the stylus also in xournal? I would like to compare them... any comment and comparisons based on usage is welcome.

I remember about 2 years ago using xournal with Fedora 33 (or 32...) with the same laptop and stylus without problems.

One other note: I just replaced the stylus battery because it has been about 2 years since I used it. I suddenly got a system notification about the "keyboard" (?) battery to be completely discharged (in settings I see it now it hold as 1% of battery in devices section)
