<note>
<para>
A common mistake is to forget to set the event mask of a widget so that the
required events are received. See gtk_widget_set_events().

<!-- ##### STRUCT GdkEventAny ##### -->
<para>
Contains the fields which are common to all event structs.
Any event can safely be cast to a #GdkEventAny to access these fields.
</para>
@type: the type of the event.
@window: the window which received the event.
@send_event: TRUE if the event was sent explicitly (e.g. using XSendEvent).

<!-- ##### STRUCT GdkEventButton ##### -->
<para>
Used for button press and button release events. The
<structfield>type</structfield> field will be one of %GDK_BUTTON_PRESS,
%GDK_2BUTTON_PRESS, GDK_3BUTTON_PRESS, and GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE.
</para>
<para>
Double and treble-clicks result in a sequence of events being received.
For double-clicks the order of events will be:
<orderedlist>
<listitem><para>%GDK_BUTTON_PRESS</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>%GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>%GDK_BUTTON_PRESS</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>%GDK_2BUTTON_PRESS</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>%GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE</para></listitem>
</orderedlist>
Note that the first click is received just like a normal
button press, while the second click results in a %GDK_2BUTTON_PRESS being
received just after the %GDK_BUTTON_PRESS.
</para>
<para>
Treble-clicks are very similar to double-clicks, except that %GDK_3BUTTON_PRESS
is inserted after the third click. The order of the events is:
<orderedlist>
<listitem><para>%GDK_BUTTON_PRESS</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>%GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>%GDK_BUTTON_PRESS</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>%GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE</para></listitem>

</para>
@type: the type of the event.
@window: the window which received the event.
@send_event: TRUE if the event was sent explicitly (e.g. using XSendEvent).
@time: the time of the event in milliseconds. This wraps around every 50 days.
@x: the x coordinate of the mouse relative to the window.
@y: the y coordinate of the mouse relative to the window.
@pressure: the pressure of the button press, intended for input devices such
as graphics tablets. It defaults to 0.5.

@x_root: the x coordinate of the mouse relative to the root of the screen.
