ALLEGRO_MO...ATION_MODE(3)

💅 ALLEGRO_MO...ATION_MODE(3) 💅

okay bestie, this one is straight out of the Allegro reference manual / Library Functions Manual, and it’s giving Allegro 5 API energy. It’s a typedef enum situation for choosing how mouse emulation gets applied. 🐭✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

ALLEGRO_MOUSE_EMULATION_MODE — Allegro 5 API. That’s the enum name, no cap.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

typedef enum ALLEGRO_MOUSE_EMULATION_MODE

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Type of mouse emulation to apply. That’s the whole vibe: you pick one of these enum values.

• ALLEGRO_MOUSE_EMULATION_NONE — Disables mouse emulation. Nope, no emulation here.
• ALLEGRO_MOUSE_EMULATION_TRANSPARENT — Enables transparent mouse emulation. See-through emulation vibes.
• ALLEGRO_MOUSE_EMULATION_INCLUSIVE — Enable inclusive mouse emulation. Inclusive mode is on the menu.
• ALLEGRO_MOUSE_EMULATION_EXCLUSIVE — Enables exclusive mouse emulation. Exclusive mode, very main character.
• ALLEGRO_MOUSE_EMULATION_5_0_x — Enables mouse emulation that is backwards compatible with Allegro 5.0.x. It’s for the 5.0.x girlies. 💾

⭐ SINCE ⭐

5.1.0. Periodt.

[Unstable API]: Seems of limited value, as touch input tends to have different semantics compared to mouse input. Bestie, that’s the official warning — touch input is a different vibe from mouse input, so this API is marked unstable and seems of limited value. 💀

Cute sign-off: source/version is the Allegro reference manual, the page footer says ALLEGRO_MO...ATION_MODE(3), and there’s no date shown on that footer — so we’re not inventing one. Love that for us. 💖🫶
