simple way of grabbing screen coordinates from the reMarkable Tablet
Instructions:
- Upload this pdf to your reMarkable however you'd like (reMarkable desktop app, usb web connections, rmapi...), and open it on your reMarkable.
- SSH into your RM and run these commands:
cd
wget https://github.com/isaacwisdom/RemarkableGetScreenLocations/releases/latest/download/GetScreenLocations
chmod +x GetScreenLocations
- With the PDF open on your RM, run the following command:
For RM1, touchscreen
./GetScreenLocations /dev/input/event1 30
For RM1, pen
./GetScreenLocations /dev/input/event0 30
For RM2, touchscreen
./GetScreenLocations /dev/input/event2 30
For RM1, pen
./GetScreenLocations /dev/input/event1 30
The program will ask you to press each location 5 times and will pause between locations. (sometimes it'll read multiple presses at a time, this is fine) Be careful to not touch anything during that second, or you can overlap the events. If you need to start over, you can quit with control-C.
