PointerEvent extension type

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.

A pointer is a hardware agnostic representation of input devices (such as a mouse, pen or contact point on a touch-enable surface). The pointer can target a specific coordinate (or set of coordinates) on the contact surface such as a screen.

A pointer's hit test is the process a browser uses to determine the target element for a pointer event. Typically, this is determined by considering the pointer's location and also the visual layout of elements in a document on screen media.

Properties

altKey → bool: The MouseEvent.altKey read-only property is a boolean value that indicates whether the alt key was pressed or not when a given mouse event occurs.
no setterinherited
asString → String: Available on JSAny, provided by the JSAnyExtension extension

no setter
asString → String?: Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyNullableExtension extension

no setter
bubbles → bool: The bubbles read-only property of the Event interface indicates whether the event bubbles up through the DOM tree or not.
no setterinherited
button → int: The MouseEvent.button read-only property indicates which button was pressed on the mouse to trigger the event.
no setterinherited
buttons → int: The MouseEvent.buttons read-only property indicates which buttons are pressed on the mouse (or other input device) when a mouse event is triggered.
no setterinherited
cancelable → bool: The cancelable read-only property of the Event interface indicates whether the event can be canceled, and therefore prevented as if the event never happened.

cancelBubble ↔ bool: The cancelBubble property of the Event interface is deprecated. Use Event.stopPropagation instead. Setting its value to true before returning from an event handler prevents propagation of the event. In later implementations, setting this to false does nothing. See Browser compatibility for details.

Instead of a stream of many Element.pointermove_event events, user agents coalesce multiple updates into a single event.
