Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2004 21:54:02 +0100 From: Max Horn Subject: Auto hide mouse & other changes the attached bug adds the auto-hide-mouse feature I talked about earlier. Turned out it was a lot simpler than I thought, simply by using our existing code :-). I actually spent much more time on fixing various bugs in the code and correcting (IMO) some behavior (although, due to the lack of real specs for SDL, it's probably arguable what 'correct' means...). * adds auto (un)hiding of mouse depending on whether it is in- or outside the game window * computation of course coordinates is correct now (it often and reproducible got out of sync with the old code, since the NSEvent window was in some cases *not* our window anymore, so locationInWindow returned wrong results) * added a method which at any time returns the mouse coords, relative to our window * fixed handling of lost/gain input/mouse/app focus "events"

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSDL_MouseMotionEvent\fR is a member of the \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR union and is used when an event of type \fBSDL_MOUSEMOTION\fP is reported\&.
.PP
Simply put, a \fBSDL_MOUSEMOTION\fP type event occurs when a user moves the mouse within the application window or when \fI\fBSDL_WarpMouse\fP\fR is called\&. Both the absolute (\fBx\fR and \fBy\fR) and relative (\fBxrel\fR and \fByrel\fR) coordinates are reported along with the current button states (\fBstate\fR)\&. The button state can be interpreted using the \fBSDL_BUTTON\fP macro (see \fI\fBSDL_GetMouseState\fP\fR)\&.
.PP
If the cursor is hidden (\fI\fBSDL_ShowCursor\fP(0)\fR) and the input is grabbed (\fI\fBSDL_WM_GrabInput\fP(SDL_GRAB_ON)\fR), then the mouse will give relative motion events even when the cursor reaches the edge fo the screen\&. This is currently only implemented on Windows and Linux/Unix-a-likes\&.
