Remarks

This structure is used by the IGameInputReading::GetMouseState method.

Mouse and scroll-wheel movements are not reported as absolute positions. Calculate deltas by subtracting the values in the current reading from the values in the previous reading.

GameInput will present any available trackpad devices as a single virtual mouse device.

For more information, see GameInput readings.
