Secondary Events

You can determine what other events are taking place when a specific event is triggered. For example, when a mouse button is clicked, you may want to know whether the ALT key was down at the same time.

Event Attributes

The following event attributes are supported for skins:

  • altKey
  • button
  • clientX
  • clientY
  • ctrlKey
  • fromElement
  • offsetX
  • offsetY
  • screenX
  • screenY
  • shiftKey
  • srcElement
  • toElement
  • x
  • y
  • keyCode

For more information about these attributes, see the Skin Programming Reference.

Using Secondary Events

You can only process event attributes in JScript code. You must use the following syntax:

event.eventattributename

eventattributename is the name of the event attribute. For example, to determine whether the ALT key was pressed during a click event, you could use the following lines in your JScript code:

wasAlt = event.altKey ;
if (wasAlt = true)
{
   // Do something here.
}
