Get(ActiveModifierKeys)
Format
Get(ActiveModifierKeys)
Parameter
None
Data type returned
number
Description
Returns a number representing the keyboard modifier keys (for example, Control+Shift)
that are being pressed. The number is calculated by summing numbers representing each
modifier key being pressed. The values assigned to the keys are:
•Shift = 1
• Caps Lock = 2
• Ctrl (Windows) and Control (Mac OS) = 4
• Alt (Windows) and Option (Mac OS) = 8
• 2 (Mac OS) = 16
Note See FileMaker Pro Help for information about running scripts in client/server and
peer-to-peer environments.
Example
Returns the number 9 when Shift+Alt is pressed on a computer running Windows.
You could use this function in a script that includes a custom dialog box script step (with
an OK and Cancel button) to perform some special action if the user presses the Alt (or
Option) key while clicking OK.
