Detailed Description

An interface through which a user-actionable user interface component can be manipulated. Components which react to mouse or keyboard input from the user, (with the exception of pure text entry fields with no other function), should implement this interface. Typical actions include "click", "press", "release" (for instance for buttons), "menu" (for objects which have context menus invokable from mouse or keyboard), "open" for icons representing files folders, and others.
