API for cross-platform relative pointer events ?

Details

    Description

      Hello,
      it seems that there is no easy way in Qt to receive pointer events in relative mode, a
      feature which is supported by all desktop OS:

      It would be very useful if Qt had an API to temporarily switch from / to relative mouse movement mode, as well as for locking the pointer to a position (à la https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/blob/master/unstable/pointer-constraints/pointer-constraints-unstable-v1.xml) but right now unless mistaken it does not seem like this is the case ?

          Bug - A problem which impairs or prevents the functions of the product. QTBUG-74971 mouse events contain incorrect position when using QCursor::setPos

          • P3: Somewhat important - Should be fixed, but doesn't affect the release in any way.
          • Reported

          Suggestion - Public suggestions QTBUG-92264 WasdController should provide a way to keep rotating the camera regardless of hitting screen edges

          • P4: Low - Would be nice to fix, but it's not very important.
