An integer in which each bit set to 1 represents a pressed modifier key.

Attributes

Remarks

Returns the state of the modifier keys.

For the purposes of this function, #KEYCODE_CAPS_LOCK, #KEYCODE_SCROLL_LOCK, and #KEYCODE_NUM_LOCK are not considered modifier keys. Consequently, this function specifically masks out #META_CAPS_LOCK_ON, #META_SCROLL_LOCK_ON and #META_NUM_LOCK_ON.

The value returned consists of the meta state (from #getMetaState) normalized using #normalizeMetaState(int) and then masked with #getModifierMetaStateMask so that only valid modifier bits are retained.
