                        GdkTimeCoord ***events,
                        gint *n_events);

Obtains the motion history for a device; given a starting and ending timestamp, return all events in the motion history for the device in the given range of time. Some windowing systems do not support motion history, in which case, FALSE will be returned. (This is not distinguishable from the case where motion history is supported and no events were found.)

gdk_device_free_history ()

void
gdk_device_free_history (GdkTimeCoord **events,
                         gint n_events);

gdk_device_get_n_axes ()

gint
gdk_device_get_n_axes (GdkDevice *device);

Gets the number of axes of a device.

Since 2.22

Turns extension events on or off for a particular window, and specifies the event mask for extension events.

struct GdkDevice

struct GdkDevice {
  GObject parent_instance;
  /* All fields are read-only */
	  
  gchar *GSEAL (name);
  GdkInputSource GSEAL (source);
  GdkInputMode GSEAL (mode);
  gboolean GSEAL (has_cursor);   /* TRUE if the X pointer follows device motion */
	  
  gint GSEAL (num_axes);
  GdkDeviceAxis *GSEAL (axes);
	  
  gint GSEAL (num_keys);
  GdkDeviceKey *GSEAL (keys);
};

A GdkDevice structure contains a detailed description of an extended input device. All fields are read-only; but you can use gdk_device_set_source(), gdk_device_set_mode(), gdk_device_set_key() and gdk_device_set_axis_use() to configure various aspects of the device.

enum GdkInputSource

An enumeration describing the type of an input device in general terms.

enum GdkInputMode

An enumeration that describes the mode of an input device.

struct GdkDeviceKey

struct GdkDeviceKey {
  guint keyval;
  GdkModifierType modifiers;
};

The GdkDeviceKey structure contains information about the mapping of one device macro button onto a normal X key event. It has the following fields:

struct GdkDeviceAxis

struct GdkDeviceAxis {
  GdkAxisUse use;
  gdouble    min;
  gdouble    max;
};

The GdkDeviceAxis structure contains information about the range and mapping of a device axis.

enum GdkAxisUse

An enumeration describing the way in which a device axis (valuator) maps onto the predefined valuator types that GTK+ understands.

struct GdkTimeCoord

struct GdkTimeCoord {
  guint32 time;
  gdouble axes[GDK_MAX_TIMECOORD_AXES];
};

The GdkTimeCoord structure stores a single event in a motion history. It contains the following fields:

enum GdkExtensionMode

An enumeration used to specify which extension events are desired for a particular widget.
