Events
When an event is sent to python, three global variables are set up in the context of the called function.
event - The event object
document - The document in which the event fired
self - The element context in which the event fired
Event Interface
Properties
Python property | Brief description | Equivalent C++ method |
current_element | The current element in the event propagation. | GetCurrentElement() |
target_element | The element the event was originally targeted at. | GetTargetElement() |
type | The type of the event. | GetType() |
parameters | Dictionary style container of all the parameters in the event | GetParameters() |
Methods
Events have a single Python method, StopPropagation(), which interrupts the event propagation if allowed by the event (ie, if it is interruptible).
