Event Handlers

mouse

mouseClicked

This event signifies a mouse click on the source component. A mouse click the combination of a mouse press and a mouse release, both of which must have occurred over the source component. Note that this event fires after the pressed and released events have fired.

.source	The component that fired this event
.button	The code for the button that caused this event to fire.
.clickCount	The number of mouse clicks associated with this event.
.x	The x-coordinate (with respect to the source component) of this mouse event.
.y	The y-coordinate (with respect to the source component) of this mouse event.
.popupTrigger	Returns True (1) if this mouse event is a popup trigger. What constitutes a popup trigger is operating system dependent, which is why this abstraction exists.
.altDown	True (1) if the Alt key was held down during this event, false (0) otherwise.
