GdkEventProximity

Proximity events are generated when using GDK's wrapper for the XInput extension. The XInput extension is an add-on for standard X that allows you to use nonstandard devices such as graphics tablets. A proximity event indicates that the stylus has moved in or out of contact with the tablet, or perhaps that the user's finger has moved in or out of contact with a touch screen. This event type will be used pretty rarely. It only is important for XInput aware programs that are drawing their own cursor. GdkEventType type; the type of the event (GDK_PROXIMITY_IN or GDK_PROXIMITY_OUT). GdkWindow *window; the window which received the event. gint8 send_event; TRUE if the event was sent explicitly (e.g. using XSendEvent). guint32 time; the time of the event in milliseconds. GdkDevice *device; the device where the event originated.
