Constants representing which mouse button was pressed.

Note that mouse buttons 4 to 7 have not a corresponding constant. These buttons refer to mouse wheel actions, directions up, down, left and right, respectively. GDK will present such events as a Widget.ScrollEvent, so if you are interested on them you will need to connect() to such event.

Field Detail

BACK

public static final MouseButton BACK

Mouse button 8. It corresponds to the button typically mapped to the "back" action, for example on web browsers. Note that many mice do not have a BACK button, so if you plan to add an application action to this button, do not forget to ensure it can be also executed by other means, such a key press, ToolButton, etc

Since:: 4.0.12

FORWARD

public static final MouseButton FORWARD

Mouse button 9. It corresponds to the button typically mapped to the "forward" action, for example on web browsers. Note that many mice do not have a FORWARD button, so if you plan to add an application action to this button, do not forget to ensure it can be also executed by other means, such a key press, ToolButton, etc

public static final MouseButton LEFT

A "left click", mouse button 1.
