I just did a fresh install of Debian Trixie and my external touchscreen is not responding to touch, is there a way to enable mouse control while I troubleshoot?

For Hudiy app, you can enable mouse cursor visibility in the settings: Menu -> Hudiy -> Settings -> Application -> Show cursor. Depending on this setting, Hudiy requests the window compositor (labwc) to show or hide the cursor. Please note that this is only a suggestion for the compositor, and a restart of Hudiy may be required for the cursor to become visible.
You can also change this setting directly in config file ($HOME/.hudiy/share/config/main_configuration.json):
https://github.com/wiboma/hudiy/blob/ma ... pplication (showCursor)
Please note that the .hudiy folder in the path to config file has a dot in its name, which means it's hidden. You can enable showing hidden files in the file manager using CTRL + H, or you can edit the files from the terminal using a tool like nano, for example: nano $HOME/.hudiy/share/config/main_configuration.json
You can also control the Hudiy interface using a keyboard. The '1' and '2' keys simulate a rotary knob, allowing you to highlight UI elements (e.g., buttons), while the arrow keys (left, right, up, down) let you switch between segments (known as 'input scopes'). The 'ESC' key is used to go back, and 'Enter' simulates a click.
You can find more information about supported keys in the documentation on our GitHub:
