 /*!
+    \qmlsignal MouseArea::onCanceled()
+
+    This handler is called when the mouse events are canceled, either because the event was not accepted or
+    another element stole the mouse event handling. This signal is for advanced users, it's useful in case there
+    is more than one mouse areas handling input, or when there is a mouse area inside a flickable. In the latter
+    case, if you do some logic on pressed and then start dragging, the flickable will steal the mouse handling
+    from the mouse area. In these cases, to reset the logic when there is no mouse handling anymore, you should
+    use onCanceled, in addition to onReleased.
