Re: Problem with setKeyEquivalentModifierMask

Where are you getting the modifiers from? Do you have a numerical example?

Also note that cocoa, the carbon menu manager, and the general
modifier key state APIs have different values for the various
modifiers so it depends on what API is generating the keycode and the
modifier you are using.
