.TH mouse_setwrap 3 "27 July 1997" "Svgalib (>= 1.2.11)" "Svgalib User Manual"
.SH NAME
mouse_setwrap \- set what happens at the mouse boundaries
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B "#include <vgamouse.h>"
.BI "void mouse_setwrap(int " state );
.SH DESCRIPTION
This routine determines what to do if the mouse position
reaches a boundary.
.I state
should be either
.BR MOUSE_WRAP ", " MOUSE_NOWRAP ", or a bitwise or of " MOUSE_WRAPX ", "
.BR MOUSE_WRAPY ", " MOUSE_WRAPZ ", " MOUSE_WRAPRX ", " MOUSE_WRAPRY ", or "
.BR MOUSE_WRAPRZ .
These define if all or the respective coordinates wrap or are clipped at the ends.
This variable has been overloaded for the case of
multi-dimensional mice that support rotations and can be
used to select the coordinate system used to return the
current position of the mouse.
If the above value of state is also ored with
.BR MOUSE_ROT_RX_RY_RZ ,
rotational information will be returned
as the angular position as expressed by the total angle wound
around the X, Y, and Z axes. This is the simplest coordinate
system to use, but it's also the least useful, since angular
rotations about perpendicular axes don't commute. There are
situations where this system might be useful, for controlling
truly independent quantities, such as color, with each axis
being used to dial a level of red, green, or blue, but
for modeling the actual orientation of a physical object,
it's utterly hopeless.
If state is instead ored with
.BR MOUSE_ROT_INFINITESIMAL ,
the angular positions returned are expressed as differences
from the previously reported position. If the differences
are sufficiently small, the angular displacements will
commute with each other and can be used to track the motion
of a physical object.
Other coordinate systems, such as yaw, pitch, and roll,
could be defined, but haven't been done due to lack of
time. If you feel you need this feature, send mail
to Eric Sharkey <sharkey@superk.physics.sunysb.edu>
and he just might consider coding it up.
.BR MOUSE_WRAP " and " MOUSE_ROT_COORDS
can be used to mask out the
bits used for wrap and coordinate states, respectively.
