LightX API -> lxinputkeyboard -> pressed

lxinputkeyboard.pressed


function pressed(
  key: word
): boolean;


Returns TRUE if the specified key was pressed since the last time it was checked or flushed. Even if a key is already held down, it can become pressed again due to keyboard repeat. Basically, held provides a realtime pressed/not pressed status, but pressed returns TRUE every time a key event is generated.

After a call to this function, the key is reset so a second call will return FALSE unless the event triggers again.

key: word
The key to check. Key IDs use the windows virtualkey (VK) constants.

Class: lxinputkeyboard
