How to detect if left mouse button is pressed in mouseArea in onPositionChanged?

[robro]

Hi,

I have a mouseArea with hover enabled.

In the handler "onPositionChanged" I would like to detect if e.g. the left mouse button is pressed or not.

Somehow this is not working.
Could you please give me a hint?

Thanks!

MWE:

import QtQuick 2.12
import QtQuick.Window 2.12

Window {
    width: 640
    height: 480
    visible: true
    title: qsTr("Hello World")

    Rectangle {
        width: 400; height: 400
        anchors.centerIn: parent
        color: "green"

        MouseArea {
            anchors.fill: parent
            hoverEnabled: true

            onPositionChanged: {
                console.log(mouseX, mouseY)
                if(mouse.button == Qt.LeftButton)  // Does not detect a pressed left mouse button! Why?
                    console.log("Left pressed")
                else console.log("Left button not detected!")
            }
        }
    }
}

@robro there are 2 properties you can check:

for any accepted Button to be pressed:

To know what exact button was pressed:

Thanks!
The second suggestion works fine!
