Keyboard Event

This table described all fields of keyboard-related component events.

Field	Name	Type	Description
ID	id	Integer	Event type ID.
When	when	Date	Event timestamp.
Modifiers	modifiers	Integer	The modifier mask for this event. Modifiers represent the state of all modal keys, such as ALT, CTRL, META, just after the event occurred. This value is a bitwise OR of the following constants: 1 - Shift key 2 - Control key 4 - Meta key 8 - Alt key 32 - Alt Graph key
Alt Down	altDown	Boolean	True if Alt key was down when an event occurred.
Alt Graph Down	altGraphDown	Boolean	True if Alt Graph key was down when an event occurred.
Control Down	controlDown	Boolean	True if Control key was down when an event occurred.
Shift Down	shiftDown	Boolean	True if Shift key was down when an event occurred.
Meta Down	metaDown	Boolean	True if Meta key was down when an event occurred.
Action Key	actionKey	Boolean	Defines whether the key in this event is an "action" key. Typically an action key does not fire a Unicode character and is not a modifier key.
Key Character	keyChar	String	Returns the character associated with the key in this event. For example, the Key Typed event for shift + "a" returns the value for "A". Key Pressed and Key Released events are not intended for reporting of character input. Therefore, the values returned by this method are guaranteed to be meaningful only for Key Typed events.
Key Code	keyCode	Integer	The integer key code associated with the key in this event. Key Typed event is not intended for reporting of character code. Therefore, the values returned by this method are guaranteed to be meaningful only for Key Pressed and Key Released events.
Key Location	keyLocation	Integer	Returns the location of the key that originated this key event. Some keys occur more than once on a keyboard, e.g. the left and right shift keys. Additionally, some keys occur on the numeric keypad. This provides a way of distinguishing such keys. Available locations: 0 - unknown 1 - standard 2 - left 3 - right 4 - numpad
