Member Function Documentation

Glib::RefPtr<Device> Gdk::Device::get_associated_device ( )

Returns the associated device to device, if device is of type Gdk::DEVICE_TYPE_MASTER, it will return the paired pointer or keyboard.

If device is of type Gdk::DEVICE_TYPE_SLAVE, it will return the master device to which device is attached to.

If device is of type Gdk::DEVICE_TYPE_FLOATING, nullptr will be returned, as there is no associated device.

Since gtkmm 3.0:

Returns: The associated device, or nullptr.

Glib::RefPtr<const Device> Gdk::Device::get_associated_device ( ) const

Returns the associated device to device, if device is of type Gdk::DEVICE_TYPE_MASTER, it will return the paired pointer or keyboard.

If device is of type Gdk::DEVICE_TYPE_SLAVE, it will return the master device to which device is attached to.

If device is of type Gdk::DEVICE_TYPE_FLOATING, nullptr will be returned, as there is no associated device.

Since gtkmm 3.0:

Returns: The associated device, or nullptr.

AxisFlags Gdk::Device::get_axes ( ) const

Interprets an array of double as axis values for a given device, and locates the value in the array for a given axis use.

Parameters

Given a starting and ending timestamp, this will return all events in the motion history for the device in the given range of time. Some windowing systems do not support motion history, in which case, false will be returned. (This is not distinguishable from the case where motion history is supported and no events were found.)

GdkDevice* Gdk::Device::gobj ( )

GrabStatus Gdk::Device::grab	(	const Glib::RefPtr< Window >&	window,
		GrabOwnership	grab_ownership,
		bool	owner_events,
		EventMask	event_mask,
		const Glib::RefPtr< Cursor >&	cursor,
		guint32	time_
	)

Grabs the device so that all events coming from this device are passed to this application until the device is ungrabbed with ungrab(), or the window becomes unviewable.

This overrides any previous grab on the device by this client.

Note that device and window need to be on the same display.

Device grabs are used for operations which need complete control over the given device events (either pointer or keyboard). For example in GTK+ this is used for Drag and Drop operations, popup menus and such.

Note that if the event mask of an X window has selected both button press and button release events, then a button press event will cause an automatic pointer grab until the button is released. X does this automatically since most applications expect to receive button press and release events in pairs. It is equivalent to a pointer grab on the window with owner_events set to true.

If you set up anything at the time you take the grab that needs to be cleaned up when the grab ends, you should handle the Gdk::EventGrabBroken events that are emitted when the grab ends unvoluntarily.

Since gtkmm 3.0:

Deprecated: 3.20. Use Gdk::Seat::grab() instead.

Deprecated:: Use Gdk::Seat::grab() instead.

Parameters

window	The Gdk::Window which will own the grab (the grab window).
grab_ownership	Specifies the grab ownership.
owner_events	If `false` then all device events are reported with respect to window and are only reported if selected by event_mask. If `true` then pointer events for this application are reported as normal, but pointer events outside this application are reported with respect to window and only if selected by event_mask. In either mode, unreported events are discarded.
event_mask	Specifies the event mask, which is used in accordance with owner_events.
cursor	The cursor to display while the grab is active if the device is a pointer. If this is `nullptr` then the normal cursors are used for window and its descendants, and the cursor for window is used elsewhere.
time	The timestamp of the event which led to this pointer grab. This usually comes from the Gdk::Event struct, though Gdk::CURRENT_TIME can be used if the time isn’t known.

Returns: Gdk::GRAB_SUCCESS if the grab was successful.

GrabStatus Gdk::Device::grab	(	const Glib::RefPtr< Window >&	window,
		GrabOwnership	grab_ownership,
		bool	owner_events,
		EventMask	event_mask,
		guint32	time_
	)

See the grab() method which takes more parameters.

Deprecated:: Use Gdk::Seat::grab() instead.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< Glib::RefPtr<Device> > Gdk::Device::property_associated_device ( ) const

Associated pointer or keyboard with this device, if any.

Devices of type Gdk::DEVICE_TYPE_MASTER always come in keyboard/pointer pairs. Other device types will have a nullptr associated device.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< AxisFlags > Gdk::Device::property_axes ( ) const

void Gdk::Device::set_axis_use	(	guint	index_,
		AxisUse	use
	)

Specifies how an axis of a device is used.

Parameters

index	The index of the axis.
use	Specifies how the axis is used.

void Gdk::Device::set_key	(	guint	index_,
		guint	keyval,
		ModifierType	modifiers
	)

Specifies the X key event to generate when a macro button of a device is pressed.

Parameters

index	The index of the macro button to set.
keyval	The keyval to generate.
modifiers	The modifiers to set.

bool Gdk::Device::set_mode ( InputMode mode )

Sets a the mode of an input device.

The mode controls if the device is active and whether the device’s range is mapped to the entire screen or to a single window.

Note: This is only meaningful for floating devices, master devices (and slaves connected to these) drive the pointer cursor, which is not limited by the input mode.

Parameters

mode	The input mode.

Returns: true if the mode was successfully changed.

Glib::SignalProxy< void > Gdk::Device::signal_changed ( )

Slot Prototype:: void on_my_changed()

The signal_changed() signal is emitted either when the Gdk::Device has changed the number of either axes or keys. For example In X this will normally happen when the slave device routing events through the master device changes (for example, user switches from the USB mouse to a tablet), in that case the master device will change to reflect the new slave device axes and keys.

Since gtkmm 3.22:

void Gdk::Device::ungrab ( guint32 time_ )

Release any grab on device.

Since gtkmm 3.0:

Deprecated: 3.20. Use Gdk::Seat::ungrab() instead.

Deprecated:: Use Gdk::Seat::ungrab() instead.

Parameters

time	A timestap (e.g. Gdk::CURRENT_TIME).

void Gdk::Device::warp	(	const Glib::RefPtr< Screen >&	screen,
		int	x,
		int	y
	)

Warps device in display to the point x, y on the screen screen, unless the device is confined to a window by a grab, in which case it will be moved as far as allowed by the grab.

Warping the pointer creates events as if the user had moved the mouse instantaneously to the destination.

Note that the pointer should normally be under the control of the user. This function was added to cover some rare use cases like keyboard navigation support for the color picker in the Gtk::ColorSelectionDialog.

Since gtkmm 3.0:

Parameters

screen	The screen to warp device to.
x	The X coordinate of the destination.
y	The Y coordinate of the destination.

Glib::RefPtr< Gdk::Device > wrap	(	GdkDevice *	object,
		bool	take_copy = `false`
	)

A Glib::wrap() method for this object.

Parameters

object	The C instance.
take_copy	False if the result should take ownership of the C instance. True if it should take a new copy or ref.

Returns: A C++ instance that wraps this C instance.
