initMouseEvent (method )

Owning interface and usage:  
MouseEvent.initMouseEvent(typeArg, canBubbleArg, cancelableArg, viewArg, detailArg, screenXArg, screenYArg, clientXArg, clientYArg, ctrlKeyArg, altKeyArg, shiftKeyArg, metaKeyArg, buttonArg, relatedTargetArg)

Member of these other interfaces:  
none

Description:  
The initMouseEvent() method is used to initialize the value of a MouseEvent created through the DocumentEvent interface. This method may only be called before the MouseEvent has been dispatched via the dispatchEvent() method, though it may be called multiple times during that phase if necessary. If called multiple times, the final invocation takes precedence.

long screenYArg  -  Specifies the Event's screen y coordinate.

long clientYArg  -  Specifies the Event's client y coordinate.
Boolean ctrlKeyArg  -  Specifies whether or not control key was depressed during the Event.
Boolean altKeyArg  -  Specifies whether or not alt key was depressed during the Event.
