[read-only] pointerType : enumeration▲
This property holds a value indicating what is interacting with the device. Think of the device as having a planar 2D surface, and the value of this property as identifying what interacts with the device.
There is some redundancy between this property and PointerDevice::type. If a tocuchscreen is used, then the device is TouchScreen and pointerType is Finger (always).
Valid values are:
|
Constant |

PointerDevice.GenericPointer |
a mouse or something acting like a mouse (the core pointer on X11) |

|
PointerDevice.Eraser |
the other end of the stylus (if it has a virtual eraser on the other end) |
