EventType

Description:

[ CCode ( cprefix = "GDK_" , type_id = "gdk_event_type_get_type ()" ) ]
public enum EventType

Specifies the type of the event.

Do not confuse these events with the signals that GTK+ widgets emit. Although many of these events result in corresponding signals being emitted, the events are often transformed or filtered along the way.

In some language bindings, the values gdk_2button_press and gdk_3button_press would translate into something syntactically invalid (eg `Gdk.EventType.2ButtonPress`, where a symbol is not allowed to start with a number). In that case, the aliases gdk_double_button_press and gdk_triple_button_press can be used instead.
