+# Pointer Events
+
+```{note}
+This document describes the new events API. The old (legacy) approach,
+which is still supported, is described in [](gesture_input.md).
+```
+
+**Pointer events** are Flutter's generalized "mouse-movement"-type events (for desktop or web).
+
+If you want to interact with mouse movement events within your component or game, you can use the
+`PointerMoveCallbacks` mixin.
+
+For example:
+
+```dart
+class MyComponent extends PositionComponent with PointerMoveCallbacks {
+  MyComponent() : super(size: Vector2(80, 60));
+
+  @override
+  void onPointerMove(PointerMoveEvent event) {
+    // Do something in response to the mouse move (e.g. update coordinates)
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The mixin adds two overridable methods to your component:
+
+- `onPointerMove`: called when the mouse moves within the component
+- `onPointerMoveStop`: called once if the component was being hovered and the mouse leaves
+
+By default, each of these methods does nothing, they need to be overridden in order to perform any
+function.
+
+In addition, the component must implement the `containsLocalPoint()` method (already implemented in
+`PositionComponent`, so most of the time you don't need to do anything here) -- this method allows
+Flame to know whether the event occurred within the component or not.
+
+Note that only mouse events happening within your component will be proxied along. However,
+`onPointerMoveStop` will be fired once on the first mouse movement that leaves your component, so
+you can handle any exit conditions there.
+
+
+## HoverCallbacks
+
+If you want to specifically know if your component is being hovered or not, or if you want to hook
+into hover enter and exist events, you can use a more dedicated mixin called `HoverCallbacks`.
+
+For example:
+
+```dart
+class MyComponent extends PositionComponent with HoverCallbacks {
+
+  MyComponent() : super(size: Vector2(80, 60));
+
+  @override
+  void update(double dt) {
+    // use `isHovered` to know if the component is being hovered
+  }
+
+  @override
+  void onHoverEnter() {
+    // Do something in response to the mouse entering the component
+  }
+
+  @override
+  void onHoverExit() {
+    // Do something in response to the mouse leaving the component
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Note that you can still listen to the "raw" onPointerMove methods for additional functionality, just
+make sure to call the `super` version to enable the `HoverCallbacks` behavior.
+
+
+### Demo

+Play with the demo below to see the pointer hover events in action.
