## Detailed Description

The QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent class provides wheel events in the graphics view framework.

The QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent class provides wheel events in the graphics view framework.

QWheelEvents received by a QGraphicsView are translated into QGraphicsSceneWheelEvents; it translates the QWheelEvent::globalPos() into item, scene, and screen coordinates (pos(), scenePos(), and screenPos()).

See also QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent, QGraphicsSceneContextMenuEvent, QGraphicsSceneHoverEvent, and QWheelEvent.

## Member Function Documentation

### QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent::~QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent ()

Destroys the QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent.

### Qt::MouseButtons QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent::buttons () const

Returns the mouse buttons that were pressed when the wheel event occurred.

See also modifiers().

### int QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent::delta () const

Returns the distance that the wheel is rotated, in eighths (1/8s) of a degree. A positive value indicates that the wheel was rotated forwards away from the user; a negative value indicates that the wheel was rotated backwards toward the user.

Most mouse types work in steps of 15 degrees, in which case the delta value is a multiple of 120 (== 15 * 8).

### Qt::KeyboardModifiers QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent::modifiers () const

Returns the keyboard modifiers that were active when the wheel event occurred.

See also buttons().

### Qt::Orientation QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent::orientation () const

Returns the wheel orientation.

### QPointF QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent::pos () const

Returns the position of the cursor in item coordinates when the wheel event occurred.

See also scenePos() and screenPos().

### QPointF QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent::scenePos () const

Returns the position of the cursor in scene coordinates when the wheel event occurred.

See also pos() and screenPos().

### QPoint QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent::screenPos () const

Returns the position of the cursor in screen coordinates when the wheel event occurred.

See also pos() and scenePos().
