## Interface UIEvent

- All Superinterfaces:
    Event
  All Known Subinterfaces:
    MouseEvent

      public interface UIEvent
      extends Event

  The `UIEvent` interface provides specific contextual information associated with User Interface events.

  - ### Method Summary

    Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `int` | `getDetail()` Specifies some detail information about the `Event`, depending on the type of event.
    `org.w3c.dom.views.AbstractView` | `getView()` The `view` attribute identifies the `AbstractView` from which the event was generated.
    `void` | `initUIEvent(String typeArg, boolean canBubbleArg, boolean cancelableArg, org.w3c.dom.views.AbstractView viewArg, int detailArg)` The `initUIEvent` method is used to initialize the value of a `UIEvent` created through the `DocumentEvent` interface.

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### getView

          org.w3c.dom.views.AbstractView getView()

      The `view` attribute identifies the `AbstractView` from which the event was generated.

    - #### getDetail

          int getDetail()

      Specifies some detail information about the `Event`, depending on the type of event.

    - #### initUIEvent

          void initUIEvent(String typeArg,
                         boolean canBubbleArg,
                         boolean cancelableArg,
                         org.w3c.dom.views.AbstractView viewArg,
                         int detailArg)

      The `initUIEvent` method is used to initialize the value of a `UIEvent` created through the `DocumentEvent` interface. This method may only be called before the `UIEvent` 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.
      Parameters:
        `typeArg` - Specifies the event type.
        `canBubbleArg` - Specifies whether or not the event can bubble.
        `cancelableArg` - Specifies whether or not the event's default action can be prevented.
        `viewArg` - Specifies the `Event`'s `AbstractView`.
        `detailArg` - Specifies the `Event`'s detail.
