InputKeyboardSource	Processes keyboard input for the current thread.
InputLightDismissAction	Enables dismissal of the current window based on the detection of interaction events anywhere outside of the current window or from specific keyboard input.
InputLightDismissEventArgs	Provides data for the Dismissed event.
InputNonClientPointerSource	Processes pointer input in the non-client area of a window.
InputObject	Base class for all input objects.
InputPointerSource	Represents an object that is registered to report pointer input and provide pointer cursor and input event handling.
InputPreTranslateKeyboardSource	Enables pre-translation of keyboard input for the current thread.
InputSystemCursor	Represents a visual pointer object that uses predefined system cursors such as Hand, IBeam, and Arrow.
KeyEventArgs	Provides event data for various key up and key down events.
ManipulationCompletedEventArgs	Contains event data for the ManipulationCompleted event.
ManipulationInertiaStartingEventArgs	Contains event data for the GestureRecognizer.ManipulationInertiaStartingEvent.

PointerPoint	Provides basic properties for the input pointer associated with a single mouse, pen/stylus, or touch contact.
PointerPointProperties	Provides extended properties for a PointerPoint object.
PointerPredictor	Provides support for generating a collection of PointerPoint objects that predict the most likely path of the current input Pointer.
RightTappedEventArgs	Contains event data for the GestureRecognizer.RightTapped event. For more details on this API, please see the the UWP WinRT RightTappedEventArgs topic.
TappedEventArgs	Contains event data for the Tapped event. For more details on this API, please see the the UWP WinRT TappedEventArgs topic.
