Hi,
'keys' is bit flag, so i think the code logic should be

if(event.getKeys()&MouseEvent.CTRL_KEY != 0){

}

:)

Yes there is. MouseEvent.getKeys() returns an integer indicating which keys are being held. If MouseEvent.getKeys() == MouseEvent.CTRL_KEY that means that the CTRL key was held at the time of the mouse click.
