get_current_event

function get_current_event():Gdk.Event {
    // Gjs wrapper for gtk_get_current_event()
}

Obtains a copy of the event currently being processed by GTK+.

For example, if you are handling a Gtk.Button::clicked signal, the current event will be the Gdk.EventButton that triggered the ::clicked signal.

Returns

a copy of the current event, or null if there is no current event. The returned event must be freed with Gdk.free.
