(This is the documentation for SDL3, which is the current stable version. SDL2 was the previous version!)

SDL_SetModState

Set the current key modifier state for the keyboard.

Header File

Syntax

void SDL_SetModState(SDL_Keymod modstate);

Function Parameters

SDL_Keymod

modstate

the desired SDL_Keymod for the keyboard.

Remarks

The inverse of SDL_GetModState(), SDL_SetModState() allows you to impose modifier key states on your application. Simply pass your desired modifier states into modstate. This value may be a bitwise, OR'd combination of SDL_Keymod values.

This does not change the keyboard state, only the key modifier flags that SDL reports.

Version

This function is available since SDL 3.1.3.
