Getting Modifier Key when using a combobox

Is there any technique anyone knows for getting a modifier key when clicking on a combo box.

If one calls the

var x=application.getLastKeyModifiers()

application.output('Key'+x)

function on datachange, it doesnt seem to remember the key being pressed at the time of selection.

if you call it onaction, again it doesnt trigger the script.

Calling it on focus gained doesnt appear to work either.

I am trying to give the user the ability to go to a popup form and do more complicated things then simply select from the value list, by using the ctrl key.

Just seems overkill to put a button next to each drop down if this would work?

Hi David,

Perhaps you should go the popupmenu-route by adding a small button next to the field that shows the popupmenu.
It will give you much more control.

Hope this helps.
