+ \title Qt Quick Custom Input Example
+ \ingroup qtdatavisualization_examples
+ \brief Customizing input in a Qt Quick application.
+
+ The Qt Quick Custom Input example shows how to customize the 3D graph controls from Qt Quick using the MouseArea to capture and process mouse events in Qt Quick.
+ Custom input handling code in this example shows how the camera is now controlled by using NumberAnimation to animate the camera and item selection
+ is done on mouseover rather than clicking any mouse buttons. Also the code shows how to implement similar zoom with mouse wheel functionality as the default
+ input handler implements.

+
+ \section1 Removing default input handling
+
+ The default input handling mechanism is disabled by setting the inputHandler property to null.

+
+ \section1 Implementing custom selection handling
+
+ The on mouseover selection handling is implemented using standard MouseArea to capture the mouse events.
+ The mouse area is configured to capture hover events and has two custom properties for \c mouseX and \c mouseY
+ to store the last known mouse coordinates.
+
+ \snippet ../examples/qmlcustominput/qml/qmlcustominput/main.qml 2
+
+ Whenever a pointer movement related signal is received the code updates the \c mouseX and \c mouseY properties.
+
+ \snippet ../examples/qmlcustominput/qml/qmlcustominput/main.qml 3
+
+ As the selection is one shot, and is cleared each time a 3D frame is rendered, a timer is setup to retrigger selection so that the selection moves to the item
+ currently under the mouse cursor as the camera animates around the graph even when the mouse cursor is not moving.
+
+ \snippet ../examples/qmlcustominput/qml/qmlcustominput/main.qml 4
+
+ \section1 Implementing custom zoom handling
+
+ The camera has a zoom factor that represents amount of zoom in percentages. In this example the zoom range is limited
+ between 10% and 500%. This range is then divided to four subranges where angleDelta is scaled to different amount of zoom change
+ based on the current subrange.
+
+ \dots
+ \snippet ../examples/qmlcustominput/qml/qmlcustominput/main.qml 5
+ \dots
+
+ \section1 Implementing custom camera handling
+
+ The camera is animated to constantly rotate around the graph with two animations. The rotation around the graph is done with
+ a simple NumberAnimation that just increments during 20 seconds from 0 degrees to 360 degrees and sets the \l Q3DCamera::xRotation property.
+
+ \snippet ../examples/qmlcustominput/qml/qmlcustominput/main.qml 6
+
+ The camera movement up and down is implemented with a SequentialAnimation that varies the \l Q3DCamera::yRotation property of the camera
+ from 5 degrees to 45 degrees and back with in and out easing.
