The pressing of the shift key may change the key of the event too. For example, pressing B generates key: "b", while simultaneously pressing Shift generates key: "B".
A boolean value.
Examples<p>
Press any character key, with or without holding down the SHIFT key.<br />
You can also use the SHIFT key together with the ALT key.
