Member Function Documentation
[since 6.0] const QInputDevice *QInputEvent::device() const
Returns the source device that generated the original event.
In case of a synthesized event, for example a mouse event that was generated from a touch event, device() continues to return the touchscreen device, so that you can tell that it did not come from an actual mouse. Thus mouseEvent.source()->type() != QInputDevice::DeviceType::Mouse is one possible replacement for the Qt 5 expression mouseEvent.source() == Qt::MouseEventSynthesizedByQt.
This function was introduced in Qt 6.0.
See also QPointerEvent::pointingDevice().
QInputDevice::DeviceType QInputEvent::deviceType() const
Returns the type of device that generated the event.
Qt::KeyboardModifiers QInputEvent::modifiers() const
Returns the keyboard modifier flags that existed immediately before the event occurred.
See also QGuiApplication::keyboardModifiers().
quint64 QInputEvent::timestamp() const
Returns the window system's timestamp for this event. It will normally be in milliseconds since some arbitrary point in time, such as the time when the system was started.
