Hi,
I'm trying to handle SWT.MouseWheel event for a simple Canvas object,
but it doesn't work. I need this to zoom in/out an image. I need also to
catch the drag event, is this SWT.DragDetect? Thanx!

Please give some example code to show what is failing.

The following works for me:

public static void main (String [] args) {
Display display = new Display ();
Shell shell = new Shell (display);
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());

Canvas canvas = new Canvas(shell, SWT.BORDER);
Listener listener = new Listener() {
int zoomFactor = 50;
public void handleEvent(Event event) {
switch (event.type) {
case SWT.MouseWheel:
zoomFactor = Math.max(0, zoomFactor +
event.count);
Canvas canvas = (Canvas)event.widget;
canvas.redraw();
break;
case SWT.Paint:
event.gc.drawText("Zoom = "+zoomFactor, 10,
10);
break;
}
}
};
canvas.addListener(SWT.MouseWheel, listener);
canvas.addListener(SWT.Paint, listener);
shell.setSize(400, 300);
shell.open ();
while (!shell.isDisposed ()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch ()) display.sleep ();
}
display.dispose ();
}

Hi, thanx for the reply!

I have a CTabFolder and I create CTabItem objects dynamically. Each
CTabItem object has only one contol, a Canvas. I have MouseManager for
Mouse events. Here is the sample code. All other events are caught but
MouseWheel is not.


public class myTab extends CTabItem {
public myTab(final CTabFolder tabFolder) {
super(tabFolder, SWT.FLAT);

this.setText("New");

final Composite myComposite = new Composite(tabFolder, SWT.NONE);
GridLayout layout = new GridLayout(1, false);
layout.marginHeight = layout.marginWidth = 0;
myComposite.setLayout(layout);

final Canvas myCanvas = new Canvas(myComposite, SWT.NO_BACKGROUND |
SWT.BORDER);
myCanvas.setLayoutData(new GridData(SWT.FILL, SWT.FILL, true, true));


MouseManager mouseManagerSWT = new MouseManager(myCanvas);
}

....
}



public class MouseManager implements Listener {

public MouseManager(Composite composite) {
this.composite = composite;
composite.addListener(SWT.MouseDoubleClick, this);
composite.addListener(SWT.MouseDown, this);
composite.addListener(SWT.MouseEnter, this);
composite.addListener(SWT.MouseExit, this);
composite.addListener(SWT.MouseHover, this);
composite.addListener(SWT.MouseMove, this);
composite.addListener(SWT.MouseUp, this);
composite.addListener(SWT.MouseWheel, this);
composite.addListener(SWT.DragDetect, this);
}


public void handleEvent(Event e) {
switch (e.type) {
case SWT.MouseDoubleClick:
mouseClicked(e.time, e.x, e.y, e.stateMask | e.button, 2);
break;

case SWT.MouseDown:
mouseDown(e.time, e.x, e.y, e.stateMask | e.button);
break;

case SWT.MouseEnter:
mouseEnter(e.time, e.x, e.y);
break;

case SWT.MouseExit:
mouseExit(e.time, e.x, e.y);
break;

case SWT.MouseHover:
break;

case SWT.MouseMove:
mouseMove(e.time, e.x, e.y, e.stateMask | e.button);
break;

case SWT.MouseUp:
mouseUp(e.time, e.x, e.y, e.stateMask | e.button);
break;

case SWT.MouseWheel:
System.out.println(new MouseEvent(e).toString());
mouseWheel(e.time, e.detail, e.stateMask | e.button);
break;

case SWT.DragDetect:
int stateMasks = e.stateMask;
if ((stateMasks & LEFT_MIDDLE_RIGHT) == 0) stateMasks |= LEFT;
mouseDrag(e.time, e.x, e.y, stateMasks);
break;
default:
break;
}
}
}

Thanx again!
Regards,
Murad

The MouseWheel is going to the widget with focus. Canvas will not take
focus until you add a key listener. In the example below I have placed the
canvas in a CTabFolder and given it a key listener. When the shell first
opens, focus in the CTabFolder tab (see the focus rectangle around "hello")
If you click on the canvas (or tab into) the canvas will take focus. Then
the canvas will start receiving the mouse wheel events. (My previous
example worked because the canvas was the only widget in the shell and
therefore all events were going to it - in your case, CTabFolder can take
focus so you need to make your canvas take focus too).

public static void main (String [] args) {
Display display = new Display ();
Shell shell = new Shell (display);
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());

CTabFolder folder = new CTabFolder(shell, SWT.BORDER);
CTabItem item = new CTabItem(folder, SWT.NONE);
item.setText("hello");
Composite c = new Composite(folder, SWT.NONE);
c.setLayout(new FillLayout());
item.setControl(c);
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(c, SWT.BORDER);
Listener listener = new Listener() {
int zoomFactor = 50;
public void handleEvent(Event event) {
switch (event.type) {
case SWT.MouseWheel:
zoomFactor = Math.max(0, zoomFactor +
event.count);
Canvas canvas = (Canvas)event.widget;
canvas.redraw();
break;
case SWT.Paint:
event.gc.drawText("Zoom = "+zoomFactor, 10,
10);
break;
}
}
};
canvas.addListener(SWT.MouseWheel, listener);
canvas.addListener(SWT.Paint, listener);
// Add KeyDown listener so that canvas takes focus
canvas.addListener(SWT.KeyDown, listener);
shell.setSize(400, 300);
shell.open ();
while (!shell.isDisposed ()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch ()) display.sleep ();
}
display.dispose ();
}

Thank you very much! Setting the key listener worked like a charm.
Thanks again.
