Detailed Description

This section describes functions dealing with events from the window system.

In GTK+ applications the events are handled automatically in gtkMainDoEvent and passed on to the appropriate widgets, so these functions are rarely needed. Though some of the fields in the Event Structures are useful.

Enums and Flags

GdkEventFunc(event, data)
