SDL API Reference                         SDL_MouseButtonEvent(3)



NAME
     SDL_MouseButtonEvent - Mouse button event structure

STRUCTURE DEFINITION
     typedef struct{
       Uint8 type;
       Uint8 button;
       Uint8 state;
       Uint16 x, y;
     } SDL_MouseButtonEvent;

STRUCTURE DATA
     type                SDL_MOUSEBUTTONDOWN or SDL_MOUSEBUTTONUP

     button              The mouse button index (SDL_BUTTON_LEFT,
                         SDL_BUTTON_MIDDLE, SDL_BUTTON_RIGHT)

     state               SDL_PRESSED or SDL_RELEASED

     x, y                The X/Y  coordinates  of  the  mouse  at
                         press/release time

DESCRIPTION
     SDL_MouseButtonEvent is a member of the SDL_Event union  and
     is  used  when  an  event  of  type  SDL_MOUSEBUTTONDOWN  or
     SDL_MOUSEBUTTONUP is reported.

     When a mouse button press or release is detected then number
     of  the  button pressed (from 1 to 255, with 1 usually being
     the left button and 2 the right) is placed into button,  the
     position  of  the mouse when this event occured is stored in
     the x and the y fields. Like SDL_KeyboardEvent,  information
     on  whether  the  event  was  a  press or a release event is
     stored in both the type and state fields, but this should be
     obvious.
