package keycodetester;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.TextField;
import javafx.scene.input.KeyEvent;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
/**

*/
public class KeyCodeTester extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
TextField tf = new TextField();
tf.setOnKeyPressed(new EventHandler<KeyEvent>() {
#Override
public void handle(KeyEvent event) {
if(event.isAltDown() && event.getCode().isLetterKey()) {
System.out.println("Character");
}
}
});
StackPane root = new StackPane();
root.getChildren().add(tf);
Scene scene = new Scene(root, 300, 250);
primaryStage.setTitle("Hello World!");
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
}
/**

*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
event.getCode().isLetterKey() is your method..
