I have tried to print my own mousepad, but the mouse only works in the y
direction on it.
there were 2 versions of that mousepad, and the symptom of using the wrong
one was that the mouse would only move in one direction.
There was another version of the print-it-yourself mouse pad that's
essentially just white noise, have you tried that?
I know I need the one with the grid, because it?s shown in the
documentation.
the white noise mouse pad is not an official thing, but it's reported to
work for some optical mice. I haven't tried it myself. YMMV.
I have just created and printed a simple grid, with two lines per
millimeter. If someone has already created one that
you can download and
print that works, that would be great.
The pad has different resolutions for x and y axis, and one axis (x axis?)
seems to be more sensitive to wrong spacing (if the mouse only moves in one
direction it could also be a symptom of a mousepad rotated by 90 degrees).
So maybe you need to experiment with the grid size a bit.
