As stated before, motion events are only *delivered* per frame, all
the compress flag does is set it to deliver the motion as one event
per frame or multiple events per frame. If you have compress true (as
above) only one event is delivered, on each frame time, so thats the
time you see. You only get the position at the end of the frame.
If you turn compress off you will get all the events generated during
the last frame cycle. That allows applications to trace the positions
that the cursor moved through.
Yes, I understand this, but unfortunately I see no effect. My current
idea was that it may work not for the main window, but it may work for a
drawing area.
So I changed the C code as below, and appended an output snippet.
As you see, time interval is generally about 12 ms. Maybe the limitation
is my computer, it is some years old now, or maybe the mouse device, it
is from Logitech. When I have some time again I may check on another
computer...
