## Classes
class | wxEvent
| An event is a structure holding information about an event passed to a callback or member function. More...
class | wxEventBlocker
| This class is a special event handler which allows to discard any event (or a set of event types) directed to a specific window. More...
class | wxPropagationDisabler
| Helper class to temporarily change an event to not propagate. More...
class | wxPropagateOnce
| Helper class to temporarily lower propagation level. More...
class | wxEvtHandler
| A class that can handle events from the windowing system. More...
class | wxKeyEvent
| This event class contains information about key press and release events. More...

| This event class contains information about joystick events, particularly events received by windows. More...
class | wxScrollWinEvent
| A scroll event holds information about events sent from scrolling windows. More...
class | wxSysColourChangedEvent

## ◆ wxEventCategory

enum wxEventCategory

The different categories for a wxEvent; see wxEvent::GetEventCategory.

Note
  They are used as OR-combinable flags by wxEventLoopBase::YieldFor.

Enumerator
wxEVT_CATEGORY_UI | This is the category for those events which are generated to update the appearance of the GUI but which (usually) do not comport data processing, i.e. which do not provide input or output data (e.g. size events, scroll events, etc). They are events NOT directly generated by the user's input devices.
wxEVT_CATEGORY_USER_INPUT | This category groups those events which are generated directly from the user through input devices like mouse and keyboard and usually result in data to be processed from the application (e.g. mouse clicks, key presses, etc).
wxEVT_CATEGORY_SOCKET | This category is for wxSocketEvent.
wxEVT_CATEGORY_TIMER | This category is for wxTimerEvent.
wxEVT_CATEGORY_THREAD | This category is for any event used to send notifications from the secondary threads to the main one or in general for notifications among different threads (which may or may not be user-generated). See e.g. wxThreadEvent.
wxEVT_CATEGORY_ALL | This mask is used in wxEventLoopBase::YieldFor to specify that all event categories should be processed.

## ◆ wxEventPropagation

enum wxEventPropagation

The predefined constants for the number of times we propagate event upwards window child-parent chain.

Enumerator
wxEVENT_PROPAGATE_NONE | don't propagate it at all
wxEVENT_PROPAGATE_MAX | propagate it until it is processed

## ◆ wxIdleMode

enum wxIdleMode

See wxIdleEvent::SetMode() for more info.

Enumerator
wxIDLE_PROCESS_ALL | Send idle events to all windows.
wxIDLE_PROCESS_SPECIFIED | Send idle events to windows that have the wxWS_EX_PROCESS_IDLE flag specified.

## ◆ wxKeyCategoryFlags

enum wxKeyCategoryFlags

Flags for categories of keys.

These values are used by wxKeyEvent::IsKeyInCategory(). They may be combined via the bitwise operators |, &, and ~.

Since
  2.9.1

Enumerator
WXK_CATEGORY_ARROW | arrow keys, on and off numeric keypads
WXK_CATEGORY_PAGING | page up and page down keys, on and off numeric keypads
WXK_CATEGORY_JUMP | home and end keys, on and off numeric keypads
WXK_CATEGORY_TAB | tab key, on and off numeric keypads
WXK_CATEGORY_CUT | backspace and delete keys, on and off numeric keypads
WXK_CATEGORY_NAVIGATION | union of WXK_CATEGORY_ARROW, WXK_CATEGORY_PAGING, and WXK_CATEGORY_JUMP categories

## ◆ wxMouseWheelAxis

enum wxMouseWheelAxis

Possible axis values for mouse wheel scroll events.

Since
  2.9.4

Enumerator
wxMOUSE_WHEEL_VERTICAL | Vertical scroll event.
wxMOUSE_WHEEL_HORIZONTAL | Horizontal scroll event.

## ◆ wxUpdateUIMode

enum wxUpdateUIMode

The possibles modes to pass to wxUpdateUIEvent::SetMode().

Enumerator
wxUPDATE_UI_PROCESS_ALL | Send UI update events to all windows.
wxUPDATE_UI_PROCESS_SPECIFIED | Send UI update events to windows that have the wxWS_EX_PROCESS_UI_UPDATES flag specified.
