WLEvent.onKey()
Overview
Set an event handler for the specified key code in the current or specified scope.
The onKey function uses the buildOnKey function to parse the keyCode parameter and then calls the on function.
Format
WLEvent.onKey(keyCode,funcRef,scope);
| Parameter | Description | Type | Required | Notes |
