Is your feature request related to a problem?

I'm trying to get an absolute mouse working but I'm stuck.
The USBHIDMouse does work great with relative mouse movements.
Is there any way of inserting this feature, technically speaking?
Can you tell me where I'd find the descriptor for it; this way I could fiddle my way through.

Describe the solution you'd like

Maybe you know a workaround or another Library which might work.

I've tried different attempts with different solutions; MouseTo.h, AbsMouse, HID-Project...

I do have a working CuircutPython with random absolute mouse movements running from @dglaude
It would be a real bummer switching to python this late in my project.

Any tipp or suggestion will help me... Ty

Describe alternatives you've considered

MouseTo / based on Mouse.h
AbsMouse
AbsoluteMouse5
HID-Project
TFT Touchscreen Simulation
... all kind of forum suggestions and chatGPT testing failed or resulted in a relative mouse.
All tested on multiple os's (Win/Mac/Linux)
Most of the stuff is 5-10 years old and kinda outdated ;/

Additional context

I don't mind buying you guys'n'girls a couple of beers or so
Thanks

PS: I thought about the Teensy 3.1 solution by Elmue @ Teensy 3.1

But at this point I'm kinda lost in all the research; looking forward to your input,ty.

@gree303 - Something like this?

    AbsoluteMouse.begin();
    AbsoluteMouse.click(50, 50);    //Middle of screen

I have not tested your code; but yes.

There is a HID BLE implementation for Absolute Mouse in
https://github.com/sobrinho/ESP32-BLE-Abs-Mouse

It may help your project.

This other Arduino project may also help:
https://github.com/jonathanedgecombe/absmouse

It is an USB HID report implementation for absolute mouse.

I think that these 2 links are good pointers to implement your project.

Thanks @SuGlider I will have a look.

just this is a sample for absolute mouse

and this one https://github.com/hathach/tinyusb/pull/1363/files/8c79b8924eabf441f40a8ce3cab8828688575b6d
esp32 tools have used tinyusb code.

@gree303 If you have already implemented the solution, would you like to share it？
