EVENT FIELDS

response_type

The type of this event, in this case XCB_KEY_RELEASE. This field is also present in the xcb_generic_event_t and can be used to tell events apart from each other.

sequence

The sequence number of the last request processed by the X11 server.

detail

The keycode (a number representing a physical key on the keyboard) of the key which was pressed.

time

Time when the event was generated (in milliseconds).

root

The root window of child.

event

NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

child

NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

root_x

The X coordinate of the pointer relative to the root window at the time of the event.

root_y

The Y coordinate of the pointer relative to the root window at the time of the event.

event_x

If same_screen is true, this is the X coordinate relative to the event window's origin. Otherwise, event_x will be set to zero.

event_y

If same_screen is true, this is the Y coordinate relative to the event window's origin. Otherwise, event_y will be set to zero.

state

The logical state of the pointer buttons and modifier keys just prior to the event.

same_screen

Whether the event window is on the same screen as the root window.
