Mouse (User Interface) (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

The Mouse functionality in Microsoft® Windows® CE 5.0 provides support for mouse input. Windows CE supports a mouse that has one, two, or three buttons and a mouse with a mouse wheel. The mouse is an optional user-input device, and many Windows CE–based devices rely on stylus input rather than mouse input to enhance portability. Applications, however, process stylus events as a click of the left mouse button, so adding support for mouse input to your OS design can provide broader capabilities through the support of the additional buttons and mouse wheel.
