Struct conrod::input::global::Global

pub struct Global {
    pub start: State,
    pub current: State,
    pub last_click: Option<(Instant, Click)>,
    // some fields omitted

current: State

The most recent input::State, with updates from handling all the events this update cycle

last_click: Option<(Instant, Click)>
