y: i32,

button_pressrelease: EventType
) -> bool
Expand description
This function is intended to be used in GTK+ test programs.
It will warp the mouse pointer to the given (x
,y
) coordinates
within window
and simulate a button press or release event.
Because the mouse pointer needs to be warped to the target
location, use of this function outside of test programs that
run in their own virtual windowing system (e.g. Xvfb) is not
recommended.
Also, test_simulate_button()
is a fairly low level function,
for most testing purposes, gtk_test_widget_click()
is the right
function to call which will generate a button press event followed
by its accompanying button release event.
