PointerEvent

Available on js

The PointerEvent interface represents the state of a DOM event produced by a pointer such as the geometry of the contact point, the device type that generated the event, the amount of pressure that was applied on the contact surface, etc.

Constructor

`new(type:String, ?eventInitDict:Null<PointerEventInit>)`

Throws:

`null`	DOMError

Variables

`read onlyheight:Int`

The height (magnitude on the Y axis), in CSS pixels, of the contact geometry of the pointer.

`read onlyisPrimary:Bool`

Indicates if the pointer represents the primary pointer of this pointer type.

`read onlypointerId:Int`

A unique identifier for the pointer causing the event.

`read onlypointerType:String`

Indicates the device type that caused the event (mouse, pen, touch, etc.)

`read onlypressure:Float`

The normalized pressure of the pointer input in the range 0 to 1, where 0 and 1 represent the minimum and maximum pressure the hardware is capable of detecting, respectively.

`read onlytangentialPressure:Float`

The normalized tangential pressure of the pointer input (also known as barrel pressure or cylinder stress) in the range -1 to 1, where 0 is the neutral position of the control.

`read onlytiltX:Int`

The plane angle (in degrees, in the range of -90 to 90) between the Y-Z plane and the plane containing both the transducer (e.g. pen stylus) axis and the Y axis.

`read onlytiltY:Int`

The plane angle (in degrees, in the range of -90 to 90) between the X-Z plane and the plane containing both the transducer (e.g. pen stylus) axis and the X axis.

`read onlytwist:Int`

The clockwise rotation of the transducer (e.g. pen stylus) around its major axis in degrees, with a value in the range 0 to 359.

`read onlywidth:Int`

The width (magnitude on the X axis), in CSS pixels, of the contact geometry of the pointer.

Methods

`getCoalescedEvents():Array<PointerEvent>`

Returns a sequence of all PointerEvent instances that were coalesced into the dispatched pointermove event.
