Expand description

A event that describes user input.

Slint backends typically receive events from the windowing system, translate them to this enum and deliver to the scene of items via slint::Window::dispatch_event().

The pointer variants describe events originating from an input device such as a mouse or a contact point on a touch-enabled surface.

All position fields are in logical window coordinates.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)ยง

This enum is marked as non-exhaustive
Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.
ยง

PointerPressed

Fields

ยงbutton: PointerEventButton

The button that was pressed.

A pointer was pressed.

ยง

PointerReleased

Fields

ยงbutton: PointerEventButton

The button that was released.

A pointer was released.

ยง

PointerMoved

Fields

The position of the pointer has changed.

ยง

PointerScrolled

Fields

ยงdelta_x: f32

The amount of logical pixels to scroll in the horizontal direction.

ยงdelta_y: f32

The amount of logical pixels to scroll in the vertical direction.

The wheel button of a mouse was rotated to initiate scrolling.

ยง

PointerExited

The pointer exited the window.

ยง

KeyPressed

Fields

ยงtext: char

The unicode representation of the key pressed.

Example

A specific key can be mapped to a unicode by using the Key enum

let _ = slint::WindowEvent::KeyPressed { text: slint::platform::Key::Shift.into() };

A key was pressed.

ยง

KeyReleased

Fields

ยงtext: char

The unicode representation of the key released.

Example

A specific key can be mapped to a unicode by using the Key enum

let _ = slint::WindowEvent::KeyReleased { text: slint::platform::Key::Shift.into() };

A key was pressed.
