#### Description [src]

Enumeration used when synthesizing keyboard input via

# atspi_generate_keyboard_event.

#### Members

`ATSPI_KEY_PRESS`

  Emulates the pressing of a hardware keyboard key.

  - Value: `0`
  - Available since: 2.0
`ATSPI_KEY_RELEASE`

  Emulates the release of a hardware keyboard key.

  - Value: `1`
  - Available since: 2.0
`ATSPI_KEY_PRESSRELEASE`

  Emulates the pressing and immediate releasing of a hardware keyboard key.

  - Value: `2`
  - Available since: 2.0
`ATSPI_KEY_SYM`

  A symbolic key event is generated, without specifying a hardware key. Note: if the keysym is not present in the current keyboard map, the `AtspiDeviceEventController` instance has a limited ability to generate such keysyms on-the-fly. Reliability of GenerateKeyboardEvent calls using out-of-keymap keysyms will vary from system to system, and on the number of different out-of-keymap keysyms being generated in quick succession. In practice this is rarely significant, since the keysyms of interest to AT clients and keyboard emulators are usually part of the current keymap, i.e., present on the system keyboard for the current locale (even if a physical hardware keyboard is not connected).

  - Value: `3`
  - Available since: 2.0
`ATSPI_KEY_STRING`

  A string is converted to its equivalent keyboard events and emitted. If the string consists of complex characters or composed characters which are not in the current keymap, string emission is subject to the out-of-keymap limitations described for `ATSPI_KEY_SYM`. In practice this limitation primarily effects Chinese and Japanese locales.

  - Value: `4`
  - Available since: 2.0
`ATSPI_KEY_LOCKMODIFIERS`

  Emulates locking a set of modifiers.

  - Value: `5`
  - Available since: 2.0
`ATSPI_KEY_UNLOCKMODIFIERS`

  Emulates unlocking a set of modifiers.

  - Value: `6`
  - Available since: 2.0
`ATSPI_KEY_SYNTH_LAST_DEFINED`

  No description available.

  - Value: `7`
  - Available since: 2.0
