Multiple-Pointer Events

In case an instance represents a multiple-pointer event, i.e. getPointerCount() is > 1, the first data element of the multiple-pointer fields represents the pointer triggering this event.
For example e.getX(0) at EVENT_MOUSE_PRESSED returns the data of the pressed pointer, etc.

A button value of 0 denotes no button activity, i.e. MouseEvent.PointerType.Mouse move.

A pointer-ID of -1 denotes no pointer/button activity, i.e. MouseEvent.PointerType.Mouse move.

Button values are mapped from and to pointer-IDs as follows: getPointerId(0) == getButton() - 1 .

If representing a multiple-pointer event, the button number is mapped to the first pointer ID triggering the event and the button mask bits in the modifiers field represent the pressed pointer IDs.
Hence users can query the pressed button count as well as the pressed pointer count via InputEvent.getButtonDownCount() or use the simple query InputEvent.isAnyButtonDown().

array of all raw, un-normalized pressures for all pointers

getMaxPressure

public final float getMaxPressure()

Returns the maximum pressure known for the input device generating this event.

This value may be self calibrating on devices/OS, where no known maximum pressure is known. Hence subsequent events may return a higher value.

Self calibrating maximum pressure is performed on:

• Android

getRotation

public final float[] getRotation()

Returns a 3-component float array filled with the values of the rotational axis in the following order: horizontal-, vertical- and z-axis.

A vertical rotation of > 0.0f is up and < 0.0f is down.

A horizontal rotation of > 0.0f is left and < 0.0f is right.

A z-axis rotation of > 0.0f is back and < 0.0f is front.

However, on some OS this might be flipped due to the OS default behavior. The latter is true for OS X 10.7 (Lion) for example.

On PointerClass onscreen devices, i.e. touch screens, rotation events are usually produced by a 2-finger movement, where horizontal and vertical rotation values are filled.

On PointerClass offscreen devices, i.e. mouse, either the horizontal or the vertical rotation value is filled.

The InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK modifier is set in case |horizontal| > |vertical| value.
This can be utilized to implement only one 2d rotation direction, you may use InputEvent.isShiftDown() to query it.

In case the pointer type is mouse, events are usually send in steps of one, ie. -1.0f and 1.0f. Higher values may result due to fast scrolling. Fractional values may result due to slow scrolling with high resolution devices.
Here the button number refers to the wheel number.

In case the pointer type is of class MouseEvent.PointerClass.Onscreen, e.g. touch screen, see getRotationScale() for semantics.

getRotationScale

public final float getRotationScale()

Returns the scale used to determine the rotation value, which semantics depends on the pointer type's MouseEvent.PointerClass.

For MouseEvent.PointerClass.Offscreen, the scale is usually 1.0f and denominates an abstract value without association to a physical value.

For MouseEvent.PointerClass.Onscreen, the scale varies and denominates the divisor of the distance the finger[s] have moved on the screen. Hence scale * rotation reproduces the screen distance in pixels the finger[s] have moved.
