NAME

       wxContextMenuEvent - Functions for wxContextMenuEvent class

DESCRIPTION

       This  class  is  used  for  context  menu events, sent to give the application a chance to show a context
       (popup) menu for a wxWindow.

       Note that if getPosition/1 returns wxDefaultPosition,  this  means  that  the  event  originated  from  a
       keyboard  context  button  event,  and  you  should  compute a suitable position yourself, for example by
       calling wx_misc:getMousePosition/0.

       Notice that the exact sequence of mouse events is different across the platforms. For example, under  MSW
       the context menu event is generated after EVT_RIGHT_UP event and only if it was not handled but under GTK
       the  context  menu  event  is  generated after EVT_RIGHT_DOWN event. This is correct in the sense that it
       ensures that the context menu is shown according to the current platform UI conventions  and  also  means
       that  you must not handle (or call wxEvent:skip/2 in your handler if you do have one) neither right mouse
       down nor right mouse up event if you plan on handling EVT_CONTEXT_MENU event.

       See: wxCommandEvent, Overview events

       This class is derived (and can use functions) from: wxCommandEvent wxEvent

EVENTS

       Use wxEvtHandler:connect/3 with wxContextMenuEventType to subscribe to events of this type.

DATA TYPES

       wxContextMenuEvent() = wx:wx_object()

       wxContextMenu() =
           #wxContextMenu{type =
                              wxContextMenuEvent:wxContextMenuEventType(),
                          pos = {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}}

       wxContextMenuEventType() = context_menu

EXPORTS

       getPosition(This) -> {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}

              Types:

                 This = wxContextMenuEvent()

              Returns the position in screen coordinates at which the menu should be shown.

              Use wxWindow:screenToClient/2 to convert to client coordinates.

              You can also omit a position from wxWindow:popupMenu/4 in order to use the current  mouse  pointer
              position.

              If  the  event  originated  from  a  keyboard event, the value returned from this function will be
              wxDefaultPosition.

       setPosition(This, Point) -> ok

              Types:

                 This = wxContextMenuEvent()
                 Point = {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}

              Sets the position at which the menu should be shown.
