What do you mean? The Note Air 2 already has a Wacom layer; that's how the pen works.

This demonstrates the functionality that you speak of.
It's not the full screen version that you're looking for. You have to be rooted and it's not particularly easy to install. Then you need a full screen app that's blank and handles the pen data. https://xdaforums.com/posts/88706195/ The left Android is the slave (which would be the PC). The right Android is sending keys and XY out. The inset frame is touch sensitive. I forget if there were some issues with getting Windows to accept the input if you kept ADB or MTP enabled too. |

There is a software called SpaceDesk (www.spacedesk.net).
It let's you use your Android device at external display and you can use touch screen and pen as input. Is this what you are looking for? |

Mmm, I think that they're looking to just use the Boox as an input device to a PC without there being any special software on the PC.
You could use USB/ADB as your transport layer with TCP forwarding and a custom Windows driver. The possibilities are unlimited if you want to get convoluted. Last edited by Renate; 10-08-2024 at 12:37 PM. |

KDEConnect appears to do a lot of things but requires software running on both sides.
