I would like to implement the following project.
Am I barking up the right tree?
Anyone see any 'got yas' before I embark on this latest of my Quixotes?
Purpose
Allow the use of a small Win11 tablet with touchscreen as a "Dashboard" for a desktop system. An array of buttons will be displayed on the tablet, and keyboard macros invoked on the desktop
Hardware
Windows 11 Pro desktop PC - "System"
Configured with extended display
Windows 11 Pro tablet - "HID"
Keyboard
Mouse
Touchscreen
Note: Screen resolutions will not be identical
Display extension must be routed to HID
Network
WiFi
Available Software
Multiplicity
AutoHotKeys
Remote Desktop (?)
Function
Cursor will be captive on System display*
Normal mouse and keyboard events on HID are passed to System
HID will display a "virtual keyboard" generated by AutoHotKeys and located on extended space
HID touch events will be serviced by AutoHotKeys on System
*optional but probably nice: System cannot enter entended display space. When cursor reaches screen edge, it stops.
