Fixed bug #898 Jeremiah Morris 2009-12-09 16:07:17 PST No-op GlobalToLocal translations in fullscreen mode On my MacBook Pro running 10.6, I noticed a small upward bias on mouse movement in a fullscreen SDL application. The app uses WarpCursor and GetMouseState in a loop to measure relative movement. I tracked it down to NSWindow's convertBaseToScreen: routine, which added a 2-pixel offset on the Y coordinate instead of the expected (+0,+0) translation. In fullscreen mode, QZ_PrivateWarpCursor() does not translate the desired position through QZ_PrivateGlobalToLocal() before passing it to the Core Graphics system. However, QZ_GetMouseLocation() does call the reverse QZ_PrivateLocalToGlobal() even in fullscreen mode. This asymmetry caused problems each time the mouse was moved.

.SH "NAME"
SDL_SetEventFilter \- Sets up a filter to process all events before they are posted to the event queue\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBvoid \fBSDL_SetEventFilter\fP\fR(\fBSDL_EventFilter filter\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This function sets up a filter to process all events before they are posted to the event queue\&. This is a very powerful and flexible feature\&. The filter is prototyped as: 
.PP
.nf
\f(CWtypedef int (*SDL_EventFilter)(const SDL_Event *event);\fR
.fi
.PP
 If the filter returns \fB1\fR, then the event will be added to the internal queue\&. If it returns \fB0\fR, then the event will be dropped from the queue\&. This allows selective filtering of dynamically\&.
.PP
There is one caveat when dealing with the \fBSDL_QUITEVENT\fP event type\&. The event filter is only called when the window manager desires to close the application window\&. If the event filter returns 1, then the window will be closed, otherwise the window will remain open if possible\&. If the quit event is generated by an interrupt signal, it will bypass the internal queue and be delivered to the application at the next event poll\&.
.PP
.RS
\fBNote:  
.PP
Events pushed onto the queue with \fI\fBSDL_PushEvent\fP\fR or \fI\fBSDL_PeepEvents\fP\fR do not get passed through the event filter\&.

\fIBe Careful!\fP The event filter function may run in a different thread so be careful what you do within it\&.
