Interface WlPointerEventsV2

All Superinterfaces:

WlPointerEvents

All Known Subinterfaces:

WlPointerEventsV3, WlPointerEventsV4, WlPointerEventsV5

public interface WlPointerEventsV2
extends WlPointerEvents

pointer input device

The wl_pointer interface represents one or more input devices, such as mice, which control the pointer location and pointer_focus of a seat.

The wl_pointer interface generates motion, enter and leave events for the surfaces that the pointer is located over, and button and axis events for button presses, button releases and scrolling.

Method Detail

enter

void enter(WlPointerProxy emitter,
           int serial,
           @Nonnull
           WlSurfaceProxy surface,
           @Nonnull
           org.freedesktop.wayland.util.Fixed surfaceX,
           @Nonnull
           org.freedesktop.wayland.util.Fixed surfaceY)

enter event

Notification that this seat's pointer is focused on a certain surface.

When a seat's focus enters a surface, the pointer image is undefined and a client should respond to this event by setting an appropriate pointer image with the set_cursor request.

Specified by:

enter in interface WlPointerEvents

Parameters:

emitter - The protocol object that emitted the event.

serial - serial number of the enter event

surface - surface entered by the pointer

surfaceX - surface-local x coordinate

surfaceY - surface-local y coordinate

leave

void leave(WlPointerProxy emitter,
           int serial,
           @Nonnull
           WlSurfaceProxy surface)

leave event

Notification that this seat's pointer is no longer focused on a certain surface.

The leave notification is sent before the enter notification for the new focus.

Specified by:

leave in interface WlPointerEvents

Parameters:

emitter - The protocol object that emitted the event.

serial - serial number of the leave event

surface - surface left by the pointer

motion

void motion(WlPointerProxy emitter,
            int time,
            @Nonnull
            org.freedesktop.wayland.util.Fixed surfaceX,
            @Nonnull
            org.freedesktop.wayland.util.Fixed surfaceY)

pointer motion event

Notification of pointer location change. The arguments surface_x and surface_y are the location relative to the focused surface.

Specified by:

motion in interface WlPointerEvents

Parameters:

emitter - The protocol object that emitted the event.

time - timestamp with millisecond granularity

surfaceX - surface-local x coordinate

surfaceY - surface-local y coordinate

button

void button(WlPointerProxy emitter,
            int serial,
            int time,
            int button,
            int state)

pointer button event

Mouse button click and release notifications.

The location of the click is given by the last motion or enter event. The time argument is a timestamp with millisecond granularity, with an undefined base.

Specified by:

button in interface WlPointerEvents

Parameters:

emitter - The protocol object that emitted the event.

serial - serial number of the button event

time - timestamp with millisecond granularity

button - button that produced the event

state - physical state of the button

axis

void axis(WlPointerProxy emitter,
          int time,
          int axis,
          @Nonnull
          org.freedesktop.wayland.util.Fixed value)

axis event

Scroll and other axis notifications.

For scroll events (vertical and horizontal scroll axes), the value parameter is the length of a vector along the specified axis in a coordinate space identical to those of motion events, representing a relative movement along the specified axis.

For devices that support movements non-parallel to axes multiple axis events will be emitted.

When applicable, for example for touch pads, the server can choose to emit scroll events where the motion vector is equivalent to a motion event vector.

When applicable, a client can transform its content relative to the scroll distance.

Specified by:

axis in interface WlPointerEvents

Parameters:

emitter - The protocol object that emitted the event.

time - timestamp with millisecond granularity

axis - axis type

value - length of vector in surface-local coordinate space
