Member Function Documentation

bool wxUIActionSimulator::Char ( int  keycode,
int  modifiers = wxMOD_NONE 
)

Press and release a key.

Parameters:
keycodeKey to operate on, as an integer. It is interpreted as a wxKeyCode.
modifiersA combination of wxKeyModifier flags to be pressed with the given keycode.
bool wxUIActionSimulator::KeyDown ( int  keycode,
int  modifiers = wxMOD_NONE 
)

Press a key.

If you are using modifiers then it needs to be paired with an identical KeyUp or the modifiers will not be released (MSW and OSX).

Parameters:
keycodeKey to operate on, as an integer. It is interpreted as a wxKeyCode.
modifiersA combination of wxKeyModifier flags to be pressed with the given keycode.
bool wxUIActionSimulator::KeyUp ( int  keycode,
int  modifiers = wxMOD_NONE 
)

Release a key.

Parameters:
keycodeKey to operate on, as an integer. It is interpreted as a wxKeyCode.
modifiersA combination of wxKeyModifier flags to be pressed with the given keycode.
bool wxUIActionSimulator::MouseClick ( int  button = wxMOUSE_BTN_LEFT)

Click a mouse button.

Parameters:
buttonButton to press. See wxUIActionSimulator::MouseDown for a list of valid constants.

long  x2,
long  y2,
int  button = wxMOUSE_BTN_LEFT 
)

Perform a drag and drop operation.

Parameters:
x1x start coordinate, in screen coordinates.
y1y start coordinate, in screen coordinates.
x2x destination coordinate, in screen coordinates.
