Error in code sample: error CS0103: The name 'PointerEvent' does not exist in the current context

[RubenGarcia]

There is probably a missing using directive; please fix.

error CS0103: The name 'PointerEvent' does not exist in the current context
error CS0103:  The name 'PointerButton' does not exist in the current context

@RubenGarcia - which section of the article has the related code listing, is it the following code listing?

https://learn.microsoft.com/microsoft-edge/webview2/get-started/hololens2#add-code-to-hook-up-the-buttons

[RubenGarcia]

No, quite below that,
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/get-started/hololens2#input
this code:

using Microsoft.MixedReality.WebView;

public class WebViewExample : MonoBehaviour, IPointerDownHandler
{
    // WebView setup steps skipped for brevity

    public void OnPointerDown(PointerEventData eventData)
    {
        IWithMouseEvents mouseEventsWebView = webView as IWithMouseEvents;

        // Call hypothetical function which converts the event's x, y into the WebView2's coordinate space.
        var hitCoord = ConvertToWebViewSpace(eventData.position.x, eventData.position.y);

        WebViewMouseEventData mouseEvent = new WebViewMouseEventData
        {
            X = hitCoord.x,
            Y = hitCoord.y,
            Type = PointerEvent.PointerDown,
            Button = PointerButton.Left,
            TertiaryAxisDeviceType = WebViewMouseEventData.TertiaryAxisDevice.PointingDevice
        };

        // Propagate the event to the WebView plugin.
        mouseEventsWebView.MouseEvent(mouseEvent);
    }
}

[RubenGarcia]

This is the correct code

            Type = WebViewMouseEventData.EventType.MouseDown,
            Button = WebViewMouseEventData.MouseButton.ButtonLeft,

derived from the documentation at
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/develop/advanced-concepts/webview2-plugin-mouse-event-data-class

[mikehoffms]

I'm consulting with Dev to check whether to make that change in the docs ... confirmed, I plan to make that change.

@RubenGarcia - thanks.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/get-started/hololens2#input now reads:
Type = WebViewMouseEventData.EventType.MouseDown,
Button = WebViewMouseEventData.MouseButton.ButtonLeft,
