 | Event | Description |
 |---|---|
-| [**PointerCanceled**](/uwp/api/windows.ui.xaml.uielement.pointercanceled) | Occurs when a pointer is canceled by the platform. This can occur in the following circumstances:<ul><li>Touch pointers are canceled when a pen is detected within range of the input surface.</li><li>An active contact is not detected for more than 100 ms.</li><li>Monitor/display is changed (resolution, settings, multi-mon configuration).</li><li>The desktop is locked or the user has logged off.</li><li>The number of simultaneous contacts exceeded the number supported by the device.</li></ul> |

 | [**PointerCaptureLost**](/uwp/api/windows.ui.xaml.uielement.pointercapturelost) | Occurs when another UI element captures the pointer, the pointer was released, or another pointer was programmatically captured.<br>**Note:** There is no corresponding pointer capture event. |
-| [**PointerEntered**](/uwp/api/windows.ui.xaml.uielement.pointerentered) | Occurs when a pointer enters the bounding area of an element. This can happen in slightly different ways for touch, touchpad, mouse, and pen input.<ul><li>Touch requires a finger contact to fire this event, either from a direct touch down on the element or from moving into the bounding area of the element.</li><li>Mouse and touchpad both have an on-screen cursor that is always visible and fires this event even if no mouse or touchpad button is pressed.</li><li>Like touch, pen fires this event with a direct pen down on the element or from moving into the bounding area of the element.

 | [**PointerReleased**](/uwp/api/windows.ui.xaml.uielement.pointerreleased) | Occurs when the pointer indicates a release action (such as a touch up, mouse button up, pen up, or touchpad button up) within the bounding area of an element or, if the pointer is captured, outside the bounding area. |
 | [**PointerWheelChanged**](/uwp/api/windows.ui.xaml.uielement.pointerwheelchanged) | Occurs when the mouse wheel is rotated.<br>Mouse input is associated with a single pointer assigned when mouse input is first detected. Clicking a mouse button (left, wheel, or right) creates a secondary association between the pointer and that button through the [PointerMoved](/uwp/api/windows.ui.xaml.uielement.pointermoved) event. |
