27.8 Mouse Events

• To handle mouse input in a graphical window, you install a function that is notified when mouse events occur.
• There are several kinds of mouse events:
  • motion
  • dragging (moving while depressing a mouse button)
  • mouse button going down
  • mouse button going up
  • clicking (mouse button going up and down within a short period)
  • double clicking
• You install the mouse handler with the EVT_MOUSE_EVENTS macros.
