While creating an application, I ran into a unique question. I did some research and understand KeyboardEvent and MouseEvent separately, but how would I code them to be dependent on each other?

For example:

Let’s say I have a button. When you click this button, a number in a dynamic textbox will increment. If you were to be holding Ctrl, however, the number would decrement.

Anyone have any ideas on this one?
