Class TRawEvent

class TRawEvent;

Description

Represents a raw hardware event as generated by hardware drivers of a pointer device, a keyboard etc.

Raw hardware events are added to the kernel's event queue.

Pos3D()const

IMPORT_C TPoint3D Pos3D() const;

Description

Gets the Cartesian coordinates of the 3D pointer end that is closer to the screen.

Return value

TPoint3D

The Cartesian coordinates of the point defined by the end of the 3D pointing device that is closer to the screen.


Tilt()const

IMPORT_C TAngle3D Tilt() const;

Description

Gets the angular spherical polar coordinates of the 3D pointer end that is closer to the screen.

Rotation()const

IMPORT_C TInt Rotation() const;

Description

Gets the rotation angle of 3D pointing device.

Some 3D pointing devices support information regarding the angle formed between the physical and magnetical poles, as obtaining when rotating the pen along its main axis.

Return value

TInt

The rotation angle of the 3D pointing device.
