Well if new keys were added there would be both. Also, don't spam.

<key [] pressed?>

this is the backspace sensor above.

<key [] pressed?>

this is the delete sensor above.

<key [] pressed?>

this is the either ctrl,alt,or shift sensor above.

<key [     ] pressed?>

this is the tab sensor above.

<key (join [#] []) pressed?>

This is the hashtag sensor above.

Hi! I was just going to let you know I know how to make scratch detect custom keys (I think!)
So first, grab a block that says “Space Key pressed?” then you save the file. (be sure to change “sb2” to “zip”!)
then, go to “Computer” if you use Windows. (try opening your computer database if you use something else.) now, go to downloads, then open the zip file. you will see stuff that might not make sense. now open “project.json” and you will see something like this:

{
“objName”: “Stage”,
“sounds”: [{
“soundName”: “pop”,
“soundID”: 1,
“md5”: “83a9787d4cb6f3b7632b4ddfebf74367.wav”,

}],
“currentCostumeIndex”: 0,

},
{
“costumeName”: “costume2”,
“baseLayerID”: 2,

“flashVersion”: “WIN 21,0,0,182”,
“videoOn”: false,

}
}

Don't worry, I'll guide you through!
now look for “keyPressed:”, “space”.
change “space” to any other icon. like !, @, or *!

now save the file and quit.
then you find the text file, right-click it, then hover “send to…” then you click “Zipped (Compressed) folder”
then you change “zip” to “sb2”. then open the file.

(Note: this might not work with the website. I tried it, and it failed to load for some reason. try the offline editor.)

if you get some hacked blocks then you can get any accent or symbol

when gf clicked 
if <key (join [@] (nothing)) pressed> then
   add [@] to list

Support! Also, the workaround for right-clicking is:

when this sprite clicked
if <mouse down?> then
left mouse script    
else
right mouse script

Unfortunately, this runs the left mouse script when the middle mouse is pressed too, and only works for clicking that sprite, and may not work if the player clicks the mouse very quickly.

I have the same problem:

This is what I THOUGHT would work:

when green flag clicked
forever
set [movement v] to <key [any] pressed?>
end

It just says “true” as the movement.

ok i will try that

Support! This is amazing! It would add so much more uses for the keyboard! (also I learned something )

This topic is still relevant so it is technically not necroposting in a sense (still kinda is, but I think you get the point) As the scratch team and many others have said that they want to keep topics all together so that it's not spread around.

Here use this:

ask [Whats the up the control?] and wait

set [ Up] to (answer)
