# dispatchDigitizerEvent

Dispatch tablet events without orientation

## Declaration

```occ
virtual void dispatchDigitizerEvent( 
 AbsoluteTime timeStamp, 
 UInt32 transducerID, 
 DigitizerTransducerType type, 
 bool inRange, 
 UInt32 buttonState, 
 IOFixed x, 
 IOFixed y, 
 IOFixed z = 0, 
 IOFixed tipPressure = 0, 
 IOFixed auxPressure = 0, 
 IOFixed twist = 0, 
 IOOptionBits options = 0 ); 
```

## Parameters

- `timeStamp`: AbsoluteTime representing origination of event
- `ID`: ID of the transducer generating the event
- `type`: Type of the transducer generating the event
- `inRange`: Details whether the transducer is in promitity to digitizer surface
- `buttonState`: Button mask where bit0 is the primary button, bit1 secondary and so forth
- `x`: Absolute location of transducer along the x-axis from 0.0 to 1.0 in 16:16 fixed point.
- `y`: Absolute location of transducer along the y-axis from 0.0 to 1.0 in 16:16 fixed point.
- `z`: Absolute location of transducer along the z-axis from 0.0 to 1.0 in 16:16 fixed point. This is typically used to determine the distance between the transducer and surface
- `tipPressure`: Absolute pressure exerted on surface by tip from 0.0 to 1.0 in 16:16 fixed point.
- `auxPressure`: Absolute pressure exerted on transducer from 0.0 to 1.0 in 16:16 fixed point.
- `options`: Additional options to be used when dispatching event.

## Overview

Overview This is meant to be used with transducers without any orientation.
