Methods

GdkDeviceTool (Handle = null)

Creates a new DeviceTool by wrapping a native handle or another wrapper.
- @p Handle is the native handle or another wrapper whose handle to adopt.
toNativeHandle (Source)

Normalizes a constructor argument into a raw pointer carrier. Accepts a raw NativeHandle, a raw NativeBuffer returned from fn.call(...), another generated wrapper exposing handle(), or null. Returns null when the argument carries no pointer.
- @p Source is the raw handle, raw buffer, wrapper, or null.
- @r A raw pointer carrier or null when no pointer is present.
getLib ()

Returns the opened native library for this generated wrapper.
- @r The opened native library.
handle ()

Returns the wrapped NativeHandle.
- @r The wrapped NativeHandle.
isNull ()

Returns true when the wrapped handle is null.
- @r A bool.
describe ()

Returns a small string for debugging generated wrappers.
- @r A string.
asObject ()

Wraps this handle as GObject.
- @r A GObject object.
get_axes ()

Gets the axes of the tool.
- @r the axes of @tool.
get_hardware_id ()

Gets the hardware ID of this tool, or 0 if it's not known. When non-zero, the identifier is unique for the given tool model, meaning that two identical tools will share the same @hardware_id, but will have different serial numbers (see [method@Gdk.DeviceTool.get_serial]). This is a more concrete (and device specific) method to identify a GdkDeviceTool than [method@Gdk.DeviceTool.get_tool_type], as a tablet may support multiple devices with the same GdkDeviceToolType, but different hardware identifiers.
- @r The hardware identifier of this tool..
get_serial ()

Gets the serial number of this tool. This value can be used to identify a physical tool (eg. a tablet pen) across program executions.
- @r The serial ID for this tool.
get_tool_type ()

Gets the GdkDeviceToolType of the tool.
- @r The physical type for this tool. This can be used to figure out what sort of pen is being used, such as an airbrush or a pencil..
