Remarks

SDL_MouseMotionEvent is a member of the SDL_Event structure and is used when an event of type SDL_MOUSEMOTION is reported.

An SDL_MOUSEMOTION event occurs whenever a user moves the mouse within the application window or when SDL_WarpMouseInWindow() is called.

state is an 8-bit button bitmask of the current button state and is the same as that returned by SDL_GetMouseState(). You can test different buttons by using the SDL_BUTTON(X) macros with the following masks:

SDL_BUTTON_LMASK

SDL_BUTTON(SDL_BUTTON_LEFT)

SDL_BUTTON_MMASK

SDL_BUTTON(SDL_BUTTON_MIDDLE)

SDL_BUTTON_RMASK

SDL_BUTTON(SDL_BUTTON_RIGHT)

SDL_BUTTON_X1MASK

SDL_BUTTON(SDL_BUTTON_X1)

SDL_BUTTON_X2MASK

SDL_BUTTON(SDL_BUTTON_X2)

If the cursor is hidden (SDL_ShowCursor(0)) and the input is grabbed (SDL_WM_GrabInput(SDL_GRAB_ON)), then the mouse will give relative motion events even when the cursor reaches the edge of the screen. This is currently only implemented on Windows and Linux/Unix-alikes.
