SYNOPSIS
#include <ggi/events.h>

STRUCTURE MEMBERS
typedef struct gii_pbutton_event {
COMMON_DATA;
uint32 button; /* button number. This is a number, NOT a mask */
} gii_pbutton_event;
gii_pbutton_event simply specifies that the button is pressed or released.
Pointer buttons are specified in order of common usage, with 1 being the primary button:
#define GII_PBUTTON_LEFT 1 /* Left or primary button */ #define GII_PBUTTON_PRIMARY 1 #define GII_PBUTTON_FIRST 1 #define GII_PBUTTON_RIGHT 2 /* Right/Secondary button */ #define GII_PBUTTON_SECONDARY 2 #define GII_PBUTTON_SECOND 2 #define GII_PBUTTON_MIDDLE 3 /* Middle or tertiary */ #define GII_PBUTTON_TERTIARY 3 #define GII_PBUTTON_THIRD 3
Of course, applications should avoid hardcoding mouse button values.
