I need to detect if the shift key is pressed by the user during the startup of my app. How would I do that in Cocoa (targetting 10.5 and greater) ?

Try this.

Thank you, this link is very helpful. The CGEventSourceKeyState solution works perfectly.

This is how I do it in the application delegate's applicationDidFinishLaunching: implementation...


UInt32	modifiers = GetCurrentKeyModifiers();
if ( modifiers & shiftKey ) {
	// handle shift key...
}

Thank you for the suggestion. In fact I'm entirely rewriting my Carbon app from scratch using Cocoa: GetCurrentKeyModifiers() is what I was doing previously. I was looking for a Cocoa solution.



Thanks to everybody, cheers, Bernard_______________________________________________
