Info
Added in 2.2.0 / 1.13.2

Returns the binding action performed when the specified key combination is triggered.

bindingAction = GetBindingByKey(key)

Arguments

key

string - binding key to query, e.g. "G", "ALT-G", "ALT-CTRL-SHIFT-F1".

Returns

bindingAction

string - binding action that will be performed, e.g. "TOGGLEAUTORUN", "CLICK Purrseus:k1", or nil if no action will be performed.

Details

• This function takes into account override bindings by default.
• This discards modifiers from the key argument until a binding matches; thus, querying for ALT-CTRL-SHIFT-G can return the action performed due to the simple "G" binding.
