+left cursor key. See \helpref{Keycodes}{keycodes} for a full list of
+the virtual key codes.
+
+Note that in Unicode build, the returned value is meaningful only if the
+user entered a character that can be represented in current locale's default
+charset. You can obtain the corresponding Unicode character using
+\helpref{GetUnicodeKey}{wxkeyeventgetunicodekey}.
+
+
+\membersection{wxKeyEvent::GetModifiers}\label{wxkeyeventgetmodifiers}
+
+\constfunc{int}{GetModifiers}{\void}
+
+Return the bitmask of modifier keys which were pressed when this event
+happened. See \helpref{key modifier constants}{keymodifiers} for the full list
+of modifiers.
+
+Notice that this function is easier to use correctly than, for example,
+\helpref{ControlDown}{wxkeyeventcontroldown} because when using the latter you
+also have to remember to test that none of the other modifiers is pressed:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+ if ( ControlDown() && !AltDown() && !ShiftDown() && !MetaDown() )
+ ... handle Ctrl-XXX ...
+\end{verbatim}
+
+and forgetting to do it can result in serious program bugs (e.g. program not
+working with European keyboard layout where \textsc{AltGr} key which is seen by
+the program as combination of \textsc{Ctrl} and \textsc{Alt} is used). On the
+other hand, you can simply write
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+ if ( GetModifiers() == wxMOD_CONTROL )
+ ... handle Ctrl-XXX ...
+\end{verbatim}
+
+with this function.
+
+
+\membersection{wxKeyEvent::GetPosition}\label{wxkeyeventgetposition}
+
+\constfunc{wxPoint}{GetPosition}{\void}
+
+\constfunc{void}{GetPosition}{\param{long *}{x}, \param{long *}{y}}
+
+Obtains the position (in client coordinates) at which the key was pressed.
+
+
+\membersection{wxKeyEvent::GetRawKeyCode}\label{wxkeyeventgetrawkeycode}
+
+\constfunc{wxUint32}{GetRawKeyCode}{\void}
+
+Returns the raw key code for this event. This is a platform-dependent scan code
+which should only be used in advanced applications.
+
+{\bf NB:} Currently the raw key codes are not supported by all ports, use
+{\tt\#ifdef wxHAS\_RAW\_KEY\_CODES} to determine if this feature is available.
+
+
+\membersection{wxKeyEvent::GetRawKeyFlags}\label{wxkeyeventgetrawkeyflags}
+
+\constfunc{wxUint32}{GetRawKeyFlags}{\void}
+
+Returns the low level key flags for this event. The flags are
+platform-dependent and should only be used in advanced applications.
+
+{\bf NB:} Currently the raw key flags are not supported by all ports, use
+{\tt \#ifdef wxHAS\_RAW\_KEY\_CODES} to determine if this feature is available.
+
+
+\membersection{wxKeyEvent::GetUnicodeKey}\label{wxkeyeventgetunicodekey}
+
+\constfunc{wxChar}{GetUnicodeKey}{\void}
+
+Returns the Unicode character corresponding to this key event.
+
+This function is only available in Unicode build, i.e. when
+\texttt{wxUSE\_UNICODE} is $1$.
+
+
+\membersection{wxKeyEvent::GetX}\label{wxkeyeventgetx}
+
+\constfunc{long}{GetX}{\void}
+
+Returns the X position (in client coordinates) of the event.
+
+
+\membersection{wxKeyEvent::GetY}\label{wxkeyeventgety}
+
+\constfunc{long}{GetY}{\void}
+
+Returns the Y (in client coordinates) position of the event.
+
+
+\membersection{wxKeyEvent::HasModifiers}\label{wxkeyeventhasmodifiers}
+
+\constfunc{bool}{HasModifiers}{\void}
+
+Returns true if either {\sc Ctrl} or {\sc Alt} keys was down
+at the time of the key event. Note that this function does not take into
+account neither {\sc Shift} nor {\sc Meta} key states (the reason for ignoring
+the latter is that it is common for {\sc NumLock} key to be configured as
+{\sc Meta} under X but the key presses even while {\sc NumLock} is on should
+be still processed normally).
