Question Event.shift does not work with unity v2019.3.2f1

Scripting Example in Unity documentation about Event.shift doesn't work with unity v2019.3.2f1, but it works with v2018.3.8f1 and v2020. Is it a bug?

Here is the code from Unity documentation(v2019.4):

Event.shift

MonoBehaviour
{
// Detects if the shift key was pressed
void OnGUI()
{
Event e = Event.current;
if (e.shift)
{
Debug.Log("Shift was pressed :O");
}
}
}

 

Does it work with the latest Unity 2019.4 release?

 

If you need a work-around, you might try Input.GetKey instead. (Although that is probably only updated once per frame.)

 

I havent tried that yet. The code above is the same as that from Unity documentation(v2019.3)

 

In my project, I want to get input-keycodes with OnGUI method. So, Event.current is needed.

 

It confuses me that Event.current can get all Keycodes with Unity 2018.3.8f1, but cant get leftshift or rightshift with v2019.3.2f1.

 

Is there a reason you can't use Event.current to detect events while using Input.GetKey to determine whether the shift key is down at the time those events occur?

 

No，I dont use Input.getkey in OnGUI(). and the script is the same as the example above. There are no other codes like input.getkey in the script tested.

 

The question you are answering is not the one I asked.

 

Event.current should be able to detect events like the shift key is down at the time those events occur with all unity releases.

 

It works with 2019.4 release. I just tested it. Look at the following images.

 

Ok great so can you just use 2019.4? Unity doesn't support non-LTS releases so it won't be fixed in 2019.3.

 

Well, that can be a work-around. Thanks.
