+ * SECTION:gdkdevicemanager
+ * @Short_description: Functions for handling input devices
+ * @Long_description: In addition to a single pointer and keyboard for user interface input, GDK
+ * contains support for a variety of input devices, including graphics tablets,
+ * touchscreens and multiple pointers/keyboards interacting simultaneously with
+ * the user interface. Under X, the support for multiple input devices is done
+ * through the <firstterm>XInput 2</firstterm> extension, which also supports
+ * additional features such as sub-pixel positioning information and additional
+ * device-dependent information.
+ * @Title: GdkDeviceManager
+ * @See_also: #GdkDevice, #GdkEvent, gdk_enable_multidevice()
+ *
+ * By default, GDK supports the traditional single keyboard/pointer input scheme (Plus additional
+ * special input devices such as tablets. In short, backwards compatible with 2.X). Since version 3.0,
+ * if gdk_enable_multidevice() is called before gdk_display_open() and the platform supports it, GDK
+ * will be aware of multiple keyboard/pointer pairs interacting simultaneously with the user interface.
+ *
+ * Conceptually, in multidevice mode there are 2 device types, virtual devices (or master devices)
+ * are represented by the pointer cursors and keyboard foci that are seen on the screen. physical
+ * devices (or slave devices) represent the hardware that is controlling the virtual devices, and
+ * thus has no visible cursor on the screen.
+ *
+ * Virtual devices are always paired, there is a keyboard device for every pointer device,
+ * associations between devices may be inspected through gdk_device_get_associated_device().
+ *
+ * There may be several virtual devices, and several physical devices could be controlling each of
+ * these virtual devices. Physical devices may also be "floating", which means they are not attached
+ * to any virtual device.
+ *
+ * By default, GDK will automatically listen for events coming from all master devices, setting the
+ * #GdkDevice for all events coming from input devices
+ * <footnote>
+ * Events containing device information are #GDK_MOTION_NOTIFY, #GDK_BUTTON_PRESS, #GDK_2BUTTON_PRESS,
+ * #GDK_3BUTTON_PRESS, #GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE, #GDK_SCROLL, #GDK_KEY_PRESS, #GDK_KEY_RELEASE,
+ * #GDK_ENTER_NOTIFY, #GDK_LEAVE_NOTIFY, #GDK_FOCUS_CHANGE, #GDK_PROXIMITY_IN, #GDK_PROXIMITY_OUT,
+ * #GDK_DRAG_ENTER, #GDK_DRAG_LEAVE, #GDK_DRAG_MOTION, #GDK_DRAG_STATUS, #GDK_DROP_START,
+ * #GDK_DROP_FINISHED and #GDK_GRAB_BROKEN.
+ * </footnote>
+ * , although gdk_window_set_support_multidevice() has to be called on #GdkWindow<!-- --> in order to
+ * support additional features of multiple pointer interaction, such as multiple, per-device enter/leave
+ * events. The default setting will emit just one enter/leave event pair for all devices on the window.
+ * See gdk_window_set_support_multidevice() documentation for more information.
+ *
+ * In order to listen for events coming from other than a virtual device, gdk_window_set_device_events()
+ * must be called. Generally, this function can be used to modify the event mask for any given device.
+ *
+ * Input devices may also provide additional information besides X/Y. For example, graphics tablets may
+ * also provide pressure and X/Y tilt information. This information is device-dependent, and may be
+ * queried through gdk_device_get_axis(). In multidevice mode, virtual devices will change axes in order
+ * to always represent the physical device that is routing events through it. Whenever the physical device
+ * changes, the #GdkDevice:n-axes property will be notified, and gdk_device_list_axes() will return the
+ * new device axes.
+ *
+ * Devices may also have associated <firstterm>keys</firstterm> or macro buttons. Such keys can be
+ * globally set to map into normal X keyboard events. The mapping is set using gdk_device_set_key().
+ *
+ * In order to query the device hierarchy and be aware of changes in the device hierarchy (such as
+ * virtual devices being created or removed, or physical devices being plugged or unplugged), GDK
+ * provides #GdkDeviceManager. On X11, multidevice support is implemented through XInput 2. If
+ * gdk_enable_multidevice() is called, the XInput 2.x #GdkDeviceManager implementation will be used
+ * as input source, else either the core or XInput 1.x implementations will be used.
