[PD] Cannot get [hid] to work properly with my mouse

[s p]

Hi!

I am trying to use [hid] on pd vanilla and Ubuntu.
Ideally, I would like to use the mouse as a fader on Y axis : when I move
the mouse, the fader moves accordingly, when the mouse doesn't move the
fader stays in the same position.

Problem is, I can get only relative Y, and relative Y seems to keep sending
the value (1 or -1) from the last move, even if you don't move at all. So
basically it is impossible to detect that the mouse is not moving.

Is there a workaround this issue?
