Hi,

This tells me that there is no double-click event,
but a getClickCount().

I was searching in the API after "double click" and related words.

Thanks for the info

Yup, there's a certain time interval defined for the mouse driver (your OS allows you to adjust that value) and if you manage to click a mouse button more than once in that time interval the getClickCount() method returns the number of clicks detected.
