CategoryPen

Include file for SDL pen event handling.

This file describes operations for pressure-sensitive pen (stylus and/or eraser) handling, e.g., for input and drawing tablets or suitably equipped mobile / tablet devices.

To get started with pens:

• Listen to SDL_PenMotionEvent and SDL_PenButtonEvent
• To avoid treating pen events as mouse events, ignore SDL_MouseMotionEvent and SDL_MouseButtonEvent whenever which == SDL_PEN_MOUSEID.

We primarily identify pens by SDL_PenID. The implementation makes a best effort to relate each SDL_PenID to the same physical device during a session. Formerly valid SDL_PenID values remain valid even if a device disappears.

For identifying pens across sessions, the API provides the type SDL_GUID .
