Hi
I could be great to have the event :
Code: Select all
#PB_Event_leftButtonUp
#PB_Event_leftButtonDown
#PB_Event_RightButtonUp
#PB_Event_RightButtonDown
#Pb_Event_MouseMove
#Pb_Event_MouseWheel
For Windows, we have that :
Code: Select all
#WM_LBUTTONDOWN
#WM_LBUTTONUP
#WM_RBUTTONDOWN
#WM_RBUTTONUP
#WM_MOUSEWHEEL
#WM_MOUSEMOVE
But for linux and mac users ?

You should take a look into #PB_EventType_*:
#PB_EventType_LeftButtonDown
#PB_EventType_LeftButtonUp
#PB_EventType_LeftClick
#PB_EventType_LeftDoubleClick
#PB_EventType_RightButtonDown
#PB_EventType_RightButtonUp
#PB_EventType_RightClick
#PB_EventType_RightDoubleClick
#PB_EventType_MiddleButtonDown
#PB_EventType_MiddleButtonUp
#PB_EventType_MouseEnter
#PB_EventType_MouseLeave
#PB_EventType_MouseMove
#PB_EventType_MouseWheel
But the actual problem is that these event types still have to be implemented cross-platform in many of PB's gadgets ...

Hi
I know eventType, but they need special gadget (#pb_EventType_LeftButtondown need canvas for example)
I need : "Event" (mouse), not "eventtype"
A simple example to see the difference :
Code: Select all
OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 220, 100, "", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
Repeat
Event = WaitWindowEvent()
EventType = EventType()
Select event
Case #WM_LBUTTONDOWN
Debug "mouse left (with WaitWindowEvent())!"
EndSelect
Select EventType
Case #PB_EventType_LeftButtonDown
Debug "mouse left (with eventtype...!)"
EndSelect
Until Event = #PB_Event_CloseWindow
With some of my applications (map editor, 2D painting), I need event : #WM_LBUTTONDOWN , #WM_LBUTTONUp, and so (right, mousemove, wheel...), but they aren't crossplatform.

You are right in that the CanvasGadget is the best supported gadget regarding #PB_EventType_*.
But there are also 3 mouse event constants defined as window events:
#PB_Event_LeftClick
#PB_Event_LeftDoubleClick
#PB_Event_RightClick
If you change #WM_LBUTTONDOWN in your example against #PB_Event_LeftClick, you will also receive the debug message "mouse left (with WaitWindowEvent())!". But I think you are more interested in detecting whether a mouse button is down or released in a window and this is currently not possible without API...

Hi
Thank you for your answer.
Yes, those event are interesting.
It seems that #PB_Event_LeftClick = #PB_EventType_LeftButtonUp
And I need #PB_EventType_LeftButtonDown, and other events like mousemove, wheel

.
(I use #PB_Event_LeftDoubleClick in my application)
