Event fields
- response_type

- root_x
-
The X coordinate of the pointer relative to the root window at the time of the event.
- root_y
-
The Y coordinate of the pointer relative to the root window at the time of the event.
- event_x
-
If same_screen is true, this is the X coordinate relative to the event window's origin. Otherwise, event_x will be set to zero.
- event_y
-
If same_screen is true, this is the Y coordinate relative to the event window's origin. Otherwise, event_y will be set to zero.
