Graphical User Interfaces

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.
