Function Documentation

int libinput_event_tablet_tool_distance_has_changed ( struct libinput_event_tablet_tool event)

Check if the distance axis was updated in this event.

For events that are not of type LIBINPUT_EVENT_TABLET_TOOL_AXIS, LIBINPUT_EVENT_TABLET_TOOL_TIP, or LIBINPUT_EVENT_TABLET_TOOL_PROXIMITY, this function returns 0. For tablet tool events of type LIBINPUT_EVENT_TABLET_TOOL_PROXIMITY, this function always returns 1.

Note
It is an application bug to call this function for events other than LIBINPUT_EVENT_TABLET_TOOL_AXIS, LIBINPUT_EVENT_TABLET_TOOL_TIP, or LIBINPUT_EVENT_TABLET_TOOL_PROXIMITY, or LIBINPUT_EVENT_TABLET_TOOL_BUTTON.
Parameters
eventThe libinput tablet tool event
Returns
1 if the axis was updated or 0 otherwise

uint32_t libinput_event_tablet_tool_get_button ( struct libinput_event_tablet_tool event)

Return the button that triggered this event.

For events that are not of type LIBINPUT_EVENT_TABLET_TOOL_BUTTON, this function returns 0.

Note
It is an application bug to call this function for events other than LIBINPUT_EVENT_TABLET_TOOL_BUTTON.

Returns
the button state triggering this event
double libinput_event_tablet_tool_get_distance ( struct libinput_event_tablet_tool event)

Returns the current distance from the tablet's sensor, normalized to the range [0, 1].
