Determine if Shift key is pressed during mousedown event

Question

Is it possible to determine whether the Shift key is pressed during a mousedown d3.event? if possible could show me a way to do this, try looking in the API, but could not find something useful

Answer 1

You should be able to use something like this:

d3.select(window).on("click", function() {
    if (d3.event.shiftKey) {
        alert("Mouse+Shift pressed");
    }
});

Answer 2

Maybe it is necessary to use:

if (d3.event.sourceEvent.shiftKey) {
  console.log("shift pressed");
}
