Key pressed
A decision block that awaits a key/button press or release.
The fiber will pause until a key has been pressed proceeding through the YES path,
or a key was released proceeding through the UP path.
- Virtual keyboards generally don’t generate key presses.
- Detecting hardware buttons such as power and volume may not work, or only do so when the screen is on.
- Detecting volume key long presses on Android 8+ requires the “intercept volume key long press” privilege,
the Long press flag, and that consume is enabled.
