12
13 This event class contains information about keypress (character) events.
14
15 Notice that there are three different kinds of keyboard events in wxWidgets:
16 key down and up events and char events. The difference between the first two
17 is clear - the first corresponds to a key press and the second to a key
18 release - otherwise they are identical. Just note that if the key is
19 maintained in a pressed state you will typically get a lot of (automatically
20 generated) down events but only one up so it is wrong to assume that there is
21 one up event corresponding to each down one.
22
23 Both key events provide untranslated key codes while the char event carries
24 the translated one. The untranslated code for alphanumeric keys is always
25 an upper case value. For the other keys it is one of @c WXK_XXX values
26 from the @ref overview_keycodes "keycodes table". The translated key is, in
27 general, the character the user expects to appear as the result of the key
28 combination when typing the text into a text entry zone, for example.
29
30 A few examples to clarify this (all assume that CAPS LOCK is unpressed
31 and the standard US keyboard): when the @c 'A' key is pressed, the key down
32 event key code is equal to @c ASCII A == 65. But the char event key code
33 is @c ASCII a == 97. On the other hand, if you press both SHIFT and
34 @c 'A' keys simultaneously , the key code in key down event will still be
35 just @c 'A' while the char event key code parameter will now be @c 'A'
36 as well.
37
38 Although in this simple case it is clear that the correct key code could be
39 found in the key down event handler by checking the value returned by
40 wxKeyEvent::ShiftDown, in general you should use
41 @c EVT_CHAR for this as for non-alphanumeric keys the translation is
42 keyboard-layout dependent and can only be done properly by the system itself.
43
44 Another kind of translation is done when the control key is pressed: for
45 example, for CTRL-A key press the key down event still carries the
46 same key code @c 'a' as usual but the char event will have key code of
47 1, the ASCII value of this key combination.
48
49 You may discover how the other keys on your system behave interactively by
50 running the text() wxWidgets sample and pressing some keys
51 in any of the text controls shown in it.
52
53 @b Note: If a key down (@c EVT_KEY_DOWN) event is caught and
54 the event handler does not call @c event.Skip() then the corresponding
55 char event (@c EVT_CHAR) will not happen. This is by design and
56 enables the programs that handle both types of events to be a bit
57 simpler.
58
59 @b Note for Windows programmers: The key and char events in wxWidgets are
60 similar to but slightly different from Windows @c WM_KEYDOWN and
61 @c WM_CHAR events. In particular, Alt-x combination will generate a char
62 event in wxWidgets (unless it is used as an accelerator).
63
64 @b Tip: be sure to call @c event.Skip() for events that you don't process in
65 key event function, otherwise menu shortcuts may cease to work under Windows.

661 transform it in some way before inserting in a control -- for example,
662 changing its case or removing invalid characters.
663

700 @wxheader{event.h}
701
702 This event class contains information about the events generated by the mouse:
703 they include mouse buttons press and release events and mouse move events.
704
705 All mouse events involving the buttons use @c wxMOUSE_BTN_LEFT for the
706 left mouse button, @c wxMOUSE_BTN_MIDDLE for the middle one and
707 @c wxMOUSE_BTN_RIGHT for the right one. And if the system supports more
708 buttons, the @c wxMOUSE_BTN_AUX1 and @c wxMOUSE_BTN_AUX2 events
709 can also be generated. Note that not all mice have even a middle button so a
710 portable application should avoid relying on the events from it (but the right
711 button click can be emulated using the left mouse button with the control key
712 under Mac platforms with a single button mouse).
713
714 For the @c wxEVT_ENTER_WINDOW and @c wxEVT_LEAVE_WINDOW events
715 purposes, the mouse is considered to be inside the window if it is in the
716 window client area and not inside one of its children. In other words, the
717 parent window receives @c wxEVT_LEAVE_WINDOW event not only when the
718 mouse leaves the window entirely but also when it enters one of its children.
719
720 @b NB: Note that under Windows CE mouse enter and leave events are not natively
721 supported
722 by the system but are generated by wxWidgets itself. This has several
723 drawbacks: the LEAVE_WINDOW event might be received some time after the mouse
724 left the window and the state variables for it may have changed during this
725 time.
726
727 @b NB: Note the difference between methods like
728 wxMouseEvent::LeftDown and
729 wxMouseEvent::LeftIsDown: the former returns @true
730 when the event corresponds to the left mouse button click while the latter
731 returns @true if the left mouse button is currently being pressed. For
732 example, when the user is dragging the mouse you can use
733 wxMouseEvent::LeftIsDown to test
734 whether the left mouse button is (still) depressed. Also, by convention, if
735 wxMouseEvent::LeftDown returns @true,
736 wxMouseEvent::LeftIsDown will also return @true in
737 wxWidgets whatever the underlying GUI behaviour is (which is
738 platform-dependent). The same applies, of course, to other mouse buttons as
739 well.

1370 the application a chance to show a context (popup) menu.
1371
1372 Note that if wxContextMenuEvent::GetPosition returns wxDefaultPosition, this
1373 means that the event originated
1374 from a keyboard context button event, and you should compute a suitable
1375 position yourself,

1378 When a keyboard context menu button is pressed on Windows, a right-click event
1379 with default position is sent first,
1380 and if this event is not processed, the context menu event is sent. So if you
1381 process mouse events and you find your context menu event handler
1382 is not being called, you could call wxEvent::Skip for mouse right-down events.

2018 This event class contains information about window and session close events.
2019
2020 The handler function for EVT_CLOSE is called when the user has tried to close a
2021 a frame
2022 or dialog box using the window manager (X) or system menu (Windows). It can
2023 also be invoked by the application itself programmatically, for example by
2024 calling the wxWindow::Close function.
2025
2026 You should check whether the application is forcing the deletion of the window
2027 using wxCloseEvent::CanVeto. If this is @false,
2028 you @e must destroy the window using wxWindow::Destroy.
2029 If the return value is @true, it is up to you whether you respond by destroying
2030 the window.
2031
2032 If you don't destroy the window, you should call wxCloseEvent::Veto to
2033 let the calling code know that you did not destroy the window. This allows the
2034 wxWindow::Close function
2035 to return @true or @false depending on whether the close instruction was
2036 honoured or not.

2712 may only need to repaint that area. However, if your drawing depends on the
