<p>Key values are the codes which are sent whenever a key is pressed or released.
They appear in the <a class="link" href="gdk3-Event-Structures.html#GdkEventKey.keyval"><span class="type">GdkEventKey.keyval</span></a> field of the
<a class="link" href="gdk3-Event-Structures.html#GdkEventKey" title="struct GdkEventKey"><span class="type">GdkEventKey</span></a> structure, which is passed to signal handlers for the
<span class="type">“key-press-event”</span> and <span class="type">“key-release-event”</span> signals.
The complete list of key values can be found in the
<code class="literal">gdk/gdkkeysyms.h</code> header file.</p>
<p>Key values are regularly updated from the upstream X.org X11 implementation,
so new values are added regularly. They will be prefixed with GDK_KEY_ rather
than XF86XK_ or XK_ (for older symbols).</p>
<p>Key values can be converted into a string representation using
<a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keyval-name" title="gdk_keyval_name ()"><code class="function">gdk_keyval_name()</code></a>. The reverse function, converting a string to a key value,
is provided by <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keyval-from-name" title="gdk_keyval_from_name ()"><code class="function">gdk_keyval_from_name()</code></a>.</p>
<p>The case of key values can be determined using <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keyval-is-upper" title="gdk_keyval_is_upper ()"><code class="function">gdk_keyval_is_upper()</code></a> and
<a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keyval-is-lower" title="gdk_keyval_is_lower ()"><code class="function">gdk_keyval_is_lower()</code></a>. Key values can be converted to upper or lower case
using <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keyval-to-upper" title="gdk_keyval_to_upper ()"><code class="function">gdk_keyval_to_upper()</code></a> and <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keyval-to-lower" title="gdk_keyval_to_lower ()"><code class="function">gdk_keyval_to_lower()</code></a>.</p>
<p>When it makes sense, key values can be converted to and from
Unicode characters with <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keyval-to-unicode" title="gdk_keyval_to_unicode ()"><code class="function">gdk_keyval_to_unicode()</code></a> and <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-unicode-to-keyval" title="gdk_unicode_to_keyval ()"><code class="function">gdk_unicode_to_keyval()</code></a>.</p>

<a name="key-group-explanation"></a><h3>Groups</h3>
<p>One <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#GdkKeymap"><span class="type">GdkKeymap</span></a> object exists for each user display. <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keymap-get-default" title="gdk_keymap_get_default ()"><code class="function">gdk_keymap_get_default()</code></a>
returns the <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#GdkKeymap"><span class="type">GdkKeymap</span></a> for the default display; to obtain keymaps for other
displays, use <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keymap-get-for-display" title="gdk_keymap_get_for_display ()"><code class="function">gdk_keymap_get_for_display()</code></a>. A keymap
is a mapping from <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#GdkKeymapKey" title="struct GdkKeymapKey"><span class="type">GdkKeymapKey</span></a> to key values. You can think of a <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#GdkKeymapKey" title="struct GdkKeymapKey"><span class="type">GdkKeymapKey</span></a>
as a representation of a symbol printed on a physical keyboard key. That is, it
contains three pieces of information. First, it contains the hardware keycode;
this is an identifying number for a physical key. Second, it contains the
“level” of the key. The level indicates which symbol on the
key will be used, in a vertical direction. So on a standard US keyboard, the key
with the number “1“ on it also has the exclamation point (”!”) character on
it. The level indicates whether to use the “1” or the “!” symbol. The letter
keys are considered to have a lowercase letter at level 0, and an uppercase
letter at level 1, though only the uppercase letter is printed. Third, the
<a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#GdkKeymapKey" title="struct GdkKeymapKey"><span class="type">GdkKeymapKey</span></a> contains a group; groups are not used on standard US keyboards,
but are used in many other countries. On a keyboard with groups, there can be 3
or 4 symbols printed on a single key. The group indicates movement in a
horizontal direction. Usually groups are used for two different languages. In
group 0, a key might have two English characters, and in group 1 it might have
two Hebrew characters. The Hebrew characters will be printed on the key next to
the English characters.</p>
<p>In order to use a keymap to interpret a key event, its necessary to first
convert the keyboard state into an effective group and level. This is done via a
set of rules that varies widely according to type of keyboard and user
configuration. The function <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keymap-translate-keyboard-state" title="gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state ()"><code class="function">gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state()</code></a> accepts a
keyboard state -- consisting of hardware keycode pressed, active modifiers, and
active group -- applies the appropriate rules, and returns the group/level to be
used to index the keymap, along with the modifiers which did not affect the
group and level. i.e. it returns “unconsumed modifiers.” The keyboard group may
differ from the effective group used for keymap lookups because some keys don't
have multiple groups - e.g. the Enter key is always in group 0 regardless of
keyboard state.</p>
<p>Note that <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keymap-translate-keyboard-state" title="gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state ()"><code class="function">gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state()</code></a> also returns the keyval, i.e. it
goes ahead and performs the keymap lookup in addition to telling you which
effective group/level values were used for the lookup. <a class="link" href="gdk3-Event-Structures.html#GdkEventKey" title="struct GdkEventKey"><span class="type">GdkEventKey</span></a> already
contains this keyval, however, so you dont normally need to call
<a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#gdk-keymap-translate-keyboard-state" title="gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state ()"><code class="function">gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state()</code></a> just to get the keyval.</p>

group, and level. Modifiers that affected the translation and
are thus unavailable for application use are returned in
<em class="parameter"><code>consumed_modifiers</code></em>
.
See <a class="link" href="gdk3-Keyboard-Handling.html#key-group-explanation" title="Groups">Groups</a> for an explanation of
groups and levels. The <em class="parameter"><code>effective_group</code></em>
is the group that was
actually used for the translation; some keys such as Enter are not
affected by the active keyboard group. The <em class="parameter"><code>level</code></em>
is derived from
<em class="parameter"><code>state</code></em>
. For convenience, <a class="link" href="gdk3-Event-Structures.html#GdkEventKey" title="struct GdkEventKey"><span class="type">GdkEventKey</span></a> already contains the translated
keyval, so this function isnt as useful as you might think.</p>
<p><em class="parameter"><code>consumed_modifiers</code></em>
gives modifiers that should be masked outfrom <em class="parameter"><code>state</code></em>
when comparing this key press to a hot key. For instance, on a US keyboard,
the <code class="literal">plus</code> symbol is shifted, so when comparing a key press to a
<code class="literal">&lt;Control&gt;plus</code> accelerator <code class="literal">&lt;Shift&gt;</code> should be masked out.</p>

<p>An older interpretation <em class="parameter"><code>consumed_modifiers</code></em>
was that it contained
all modifiers that might affect the translation of the key;
this allowed accelerators to be stored with irrelevant consumed

</div>
<p></p>
<p>However, this did not work if multi-modifier combinations were
used in the keymap, since, for instance, <code class="literal">&lt;Control&gt;</code> would be
masked out even if only <code class="literal">&lt;Control&gt;&amp;lt;Alt&gt;</code> was used in the keymap.
To support this usage as well as well as possible, all single
modifier combinations that could affect the key for any combination
of modifiers will be returned in <em class="parameter"><code>consumed_modifiers</code></em>
; multi-modifier
combinations are returned only when actually found in <em class="parameter"><code>state</code></em>
. When
you store accelerators, you should always store them with consumed
modifiers removed. Store <code class="literal">&lt;Control&gt;plus</code>, not <code class="literal">&lt;Control&gt;&amp;lt;Shift&gt;plus</code>,</p>

So on a standard US keyboard, the key with the number “1” on it also has the
exclamation point ("!") character on it. The level indicates whether to use
the “1” or the “!” symbol. The letter keys are considered to have a lowercase
letter at level 0, and an uppercase letter at level 1, though only the
uppercase letter is printed.</p></td>
