Module Summary

Functions for wxJoystickEvent class

Description

This event class contains information about joystick events, particularly events received by windows.

See: wxJoystick (not implemented in wx)

This class is derived (and can use functions) from: wxEvent

wxWidgets docs: wxJoystickEvent

Events

Use wxEvtHandler:connect/3 with wxJoystickEventType to subscribe to events of this type.

Data Types

wxJoystick() =
    #wxJoystick{type = wxJoystickEvent:wxJoystickEventType(),
                pos = {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()},
                zPosition = integer(),
                buttonChange = integer(),
                buttonState = integer(),
                joyStick = integer()}

wxJoystickEventType() =
    joy_button_down | joy_button_up | joy_move | joy_zmove

buttonDown(This) -> boolean()

Types

buttonDown(This, Options :: [Option]) -> boolean()

Types

Option = {but, integer()}

Returns true if the event was a down event from the specified button (or any button).

buttonIsDown(This) -> boolean()

Types

buttonIsDown(This, Options :: [Option]) -> boolean()

Types

Option = {but, integer()}

Returns true if the specified button (or any button) was in a down state.

buttonUp(This) -> boolean()

Types

buttonUp(This, Options :: [Option]) -> boolean()

Types

Option = {but, integer()}

Returns true if the event was an up event from the specified button (or any button).

getButtonChange(This) -> integer()

Types

Returns the identifier of the button changing state.

The return value is where n is the index of the button changing state, which can also be retrieved using GetButtonOrdinal() (not implemented in wx).

Note that for n equal to 1, 2, 3 or 4 there are predefined wxJOY_BUTTONn constants which can be used for more clarity, however these constants are not defined for the buttons beyond the first four.

getButtonState(This) -> integer()

Types

Returns the down state of the buttons.

This is a wxJOY_BUTTONn identifier, where n is one of 1, 2, 3, 4.

getJoystick(This) -> integer()

Types

Returns the identifier of the joystick generating the event - one of wxJOYSTICK1 and wxJOYSTICK2.

getPosition(This) -> {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}

Types

Returns the x, y position of the joystick event.

These coordinates are valid for all the events except wxEVT_JOY_ZMOVE.

getZPosition(This) -> integer()

Types

Returns the z position of the joystick event.

This method can only be used for wxEVT_JOY_ZMOVE events.

isButton(This) -> boolean()

Types

Returns true if this was a button up or down event (not 'is any button down?').

isMove(This) -> boolean()

Types

Returns true if this was an x, y move event.

isZMove(This) -> boolean()

Types

Returns true if this was a z move event.
