}

An input event generated by the integration.

This only covers events that egui cares about.

Variants

Copy

The integration detected a “copy” event (e.g. Cmd+C).

Cut

The integration detected a “cut” event (e.g. Cmd+X).

Paste(String)

The integration detected a “paste” event (e.g. Cmd+V).

Text(String)

Text input, e.g. via keyboard.

When the user presses enter/return, do not send a Text (just Key::Enter).

Key

Fields

key: Key

pressed: bool

Was it pressed or released?

repeat: bool

If this is a pressed event, is it a key-repeat?

On many platforms, holding down a key produces many repeated “pressed” events for it, so called key-repeats. Sometimes you will want to ignore such events, and this lets you do that.

egui will automatically detect such repeat events and mark them as such here. Therefore, if you are writing an egui integration, you do not need to set this (just set it to false).

modifiers: Modifiers

The state of the modifier keys at the time of the event.

A key was pressed or released.

PointerMoved(Pos2)

The mouse or touch moved to a new place.

PointerButton

Fields

pos: Pos2

Where is the pointer?

button: PointerButton

What mouse button? For touches, use PointerButton::Primary.

pressed: bool

Was it the button/touch pressed this frame, or released?

modifiers: Modifiers

The state of the modifier keys at the time of the event.

A mouse button was pressed or released (or a touch started or stopped).

PointerGone

The mouse left the screen, or the last/primary touch input disappeared.

This means there is no longer a cursor on the screen for hovering etc.

On touch-up first send PointerButton{pressed: false, …} followed by PointerLeft.

Scroll(Vec2)

How many points (logical pixels) the user scrolled.

The direction of the vector indicates how to move the content that is being viewed. So if you get positive values, the content being viewed should move to the right and down, revealing new things to the left and up.

A positive X-value indicates the content is being moved right, as when swiping right on a touch-screen or track-pad with natural scrolling.

A positive Y-value indicates the content is being moved down, as when swiping down on a touch-screen or track-pad with natural scrolling.

Shift-scroll should result in horizontal scrolling (it is up to the integrations to do this).

Zoom(f32)

Zoom scale factor this frame (e.g. from ctrl-scroll or pinch gesture).

• zoom = 1: no change.
• zoom < 1: pinch together
• zoom > 1: pinch spread

CompositionStart

IME composition start.

CompositionUpdate(String)

A new IME candidate is being suggested.

CompositionEnd(String)

IME composition ended with this final result.

Touch

Fields

device_id: TouchDeviceId

Hashed device identifier (if available; may be zero). Can be used to separate touches from different devices.

id: TouchId

Unique identifier of a finger/pen. Value is stable from touch down to lift-up

phase: TouchPhase

One of: start move end cancel.

pos: Pos2

Position of the touch (or where the touch was last detected)

force: f32

Describes how hard the touch device was pressed. May always be 0 if the platform does not support pressure sensitivity. The value is in the range from 0.0 (no pressure) to 1.0 (maximum pressure).

On touch screens, report this in addition to Self::PointerMoved, Self::PointerButton, Self::PointerGone

AccessKitActionRequest(ActionRequest)

An assistive technology (e.g. screen reader) requested an action.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Event

fn clone(&self) -> Event

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Event

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for Event

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>where
__D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl PartialEq<Event> for Event

fn eq(&self, other: &Event) -> bool

This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

This method tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for Event

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>where
__S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl StructuralPartialEq for Event
