GdkEventType

Specifies the type of the event. Do not confuse these events with the signals that GTK+ widgets emit. Although many of these events result in corresponding signals being emitted, the events are often transformed or filtered along the way. GDK_NOTHING a special code to indicate a null event. GDK_DELETE the window manager has requested that the toplevel window be hidden or destroyed, usually when the user clicks on a special icon in the title bar.

GDK_BUTTON_PRESS a mouse button has been pressed. GDK_2BUTTON_PRESS a mouse button has been double-clicked (clicked twice within a short period of time). Note that each click also generates a GDK_BUTTON_PRESS event. GDK_3BUTTON_PRESS a mouse button has been clicked 3 times in a short period of time. Note that each click also generates a GDK_BUTTON_PRESS event. GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE a mouse button has been released. GDK_KEY_PRESS a key has been pressed. GDK_KEY_RELEASE a key has been released. GDK_ENTER_NOTIFY the pointer has entered the window. GDK_LEAVE_NOTIFY the pointer has left the window. GDK_FOCUS_CHANGE the keyboard focus has entered or left the window.
