Has there been any work on it to make it usable w/ touch or a stylus or a trackpad?

I'm on the verge of breaking down and buying a license for Moment of Inspiration 3D since it was designed for use on tablet computers (which is my preferred sort of hardware).

To rotate the view in SolveSpace, you need any one of these:

* a keyboard's shift key and a right mouse button, or * a middle mouse button, or * a 3D mouse.

I've done some work in SolveSpace with a Wacom tablet, by binding the stylus's buttons to the middle and right mouse buttons. SolveSpace is a pretty simple program, so you don't need to dig deep through the UI to get to all the functions. Lost of the often-used functions have keyboard shortcuts, but I don't think there is anything that is only accessible through the keyboard.

Depending on what you aim to do, you might be interested in keeping up with Blender's currently-in-development tablet mode:
