See the GdkDeviceManager documentation for more information about the various kinds of master and slave devices, and their relationships.

Details

GdkDevice

typedef struct _GdkDevice GdkDevice;

  GDK_SOURCE_ERASER,
  GDK_SOURCE_CURSOR,
  GDK_SOURCE_KEYBOARD,
  GDK_SOURCE_TOUCHSCREEN,
  GDK_SOURCE_TOUCHPAD
} GdkInputSource;

An enumeration describing the type of an input device in general terms.

`GDK_SOURCE_MOUSE`	the device is a mouse. (This will be reported for the core pointer, even if it is something else, such as a trackball.)
`GDK_SOURCE_PEN`	the device is a stylus of a graphics tablet or similar device.
`GDK_SOURCE_ERASER`	the device is an eraser. Typically, this would be the other end of a stylus on a graphics tablet.
`GDK_SOURCE_CURSOR`	the device is a graphics tablet "puck" or similar device.
`GDK_SOURCE_KEYBOARD`	the device is a keyboard.
`GDK_SOURCE_TOUCHSCREEN`	the device is a direct-input touch device, such as a touchscreen or tablet. This device type has been added in 3.4.
`GDK_SOURCE_TOUCHPAD`	the device is an indirect touch device, such as a touchpad. This device type has been added in 3.4.

enum GdkInputMode

} GdkInputMode;

An enumeration that describes the mode of an input device.

`GDK_MODE_DISABLED`	the device is disabled and will not report any events.
`GDK_MODE_SCREEN`	the device is enabled. The device's coordinate space maps to the entire screen.
`GDK_MODE_WINDOW`	the device is enabled. The device's coordinate space is mapped to a single window. The manner in which this window is chosen is undefined, but it will typically be the same way in which the focus window for key events is determined.

An enumeration describing the way in which a device axis (valuator) maps onto the predefined valuator types that GTK+ understands.

`GDK_AXIS_IGNORE`	the axis is ignored.
`GDK_AXIS_X`	the axis is used as the x axis.
`GDK_AXIS_Y`	the axis is used as the y axis.
`GDK_AXIS_PRESSURE`	the axis is used for pressure information.
`GDK_AXIS_XTILT`	the axis is used for x tilt information.
`GDK_AXIS_YTILT`	the axis is used for y tilt information.
`GDK_AXIS_WHEEL`	the axis is used for wheel information.
`GDK_AXIS_LAST`	a constant equal to the numerically highest axis value.

                                                         gint 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 GtkColorSelectionDialog.

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

gdk_device_grab ()

GdkGrabStatus       gdk_device_grab                     (GdkDevice *device,
                                                         GdkWindow *window,
                                                         GdkGrabOwnership grab_ownership,
                                                         gboolean owner_events,
                                                         GdkEventMask event_mask,
                                                         GdkCursor *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 gdk_device_ungrab(), or the window becomes unviewable. This overrides any previous grab on the device by this client.

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 GdkEventGrabBroken events that are emitted when the grab ends unvoluntarily.

`device` :	a GdkDevice. To get the device you can use `gtk_get_current_event_device()` or `gdk_event_get_device()` if the grab is in reaction to an event. Also, you can use `gdk_device_manager_get_client_pointer()` but only in code that isn't triggered by a GdkEvent and there aren't other means to get a meaningful GdkDevice to operate on.
`window` :	the GdkWindow 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 `NULL` then the normal cursors are used for `window` and its descendants, and the cursor for `window` is used elsewhere. [allow-none]
`time_` :	the timestamp of the event which led to this pointer grab. This usually comes from the GdkEvent struct, though `GDK_CURRENT_TIME` can be used if the time isn't known.
Returns :	`GDK_GRAB_SUCCESS` if the grab was successful.

Signal Details

The `"changed"` signal

void                user_function                      (GdkDevice *device,

The ::changed signal is emitted either when the GdkDevice 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.

`device` :	the GdkDevice that changed.
`user_data` :	user data set when the signal handler was connected.
