Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2004 17:03:16 +0100 From: Max Horn Subject: Modifier key fix The internal modifier state can get out of sync with reality. To trigger this, do for example this: 1) Launch an SDL app 2) Alt-click on the desktop (this will hide the SDL app). 3) Bring the SDL app back to the front 4) SDL will still think alt is pressed (and as such will treat left clicks like middle clicks). If you press and release alt, it'll be fine again. The attached patch cures this by rechecking the modifier state whenever we process an event.

\fBSDL_APPMOUSEFOCUS\fP if mouse focus was gained or lost, \fBSDL_APPINPUTFOCUS\fP if input focus was gained or lost, or \fBSDL_APPACTIVE\fP if the application was iconified (\fBgain\fR=0) or restored(\fBgain\fR=1)\&.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSDL_ActiveEvent\fR is a member of the \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR union and is used when an event of type \fBSDL_ACTIVEEVENT\fP is reported\&.
.PP
When the mouse leaves or enters the window area a \fBSDL_APPMOUSEFOCUS\fP type activation event occurs, if the mouse entered the window then \fBgain\fR will be 1, otherwise \fBgain\fR will be 0\&. A \fBSDL_APPINPUTFOCUS\fP type activation event occurs when the application loses or gains keyboard focus\&. This usually occurs when another application is made active\&. Finally, a \fBSDL_APPACTIVE\fP type event occurs when the application is either minimised/iconified (\fBgain\fR=0) or restored\&.
.PP
.RS
\fBNote:  
.PP
This event does not occur when an application window is first created\&.
