I currently have python code that runs on the original 7" official touchscreen (ft5406) which uses a quite old driver to get multitouch x+y positions from the screen so that I can use them in my program. Images and text are displayed using PyGame.
Does anyone know of either the location of a driver or guide to getting the same multitouch information from the touchscreen 2 (SC1635) so I can use it, and a pi5, as multitouch x+y input for my python code?
I also am asking if anyone knows where there is a guide to using pygame with the new touchscreen. All searching I have done so far has not been fruitful. The screen having the same name, but with '2' afterwards leads to many pages about the original screen.
Thank you in advance
