 To test a key press using this condition, you need to enter the key name in the form of text expression. For example, if you want to check condition for left arrow key press, you need to enter "Left" in the field.
 
+This condition stays true for as long as the key is **held down**. To run an action only once when the key starts being pressed (for example to make a character jump), use **Key just pressed** instead.

 "Last key pressed" expression returns the last key press in the form of a string. For example, if the last key press is the left arrow key, the expression will return "Left".
 
+## Key names
+
+When a condition or expression asks for a key name as text, use one of these names (case sensitive):
+
+- **Letters**: `a` to `z` (always lowercase, regardless of Shift or Caps Lock).
+- **Numbers**: `Num0` to `Num9` (top row) and `Numpad0` to `Numpad9` (numeric keypad).
+- **Arrow keys**: `Left`, `Up`, `Right`, `Down`.
+- **Modifiers**: `LShift`, `RShift`, `LControl`, `RControl`, `LAlt`, `RAlt`, `LSystem`, `RSystem` (the left/right Windows or Command key).
+- **Function keys**: `F1` to `F12`.
+- **Editing & navigation**: `Space`, `Return`, `Back` (Backspace), `Tab`, `Delete`, `Insert`, `Escape`, `Home`, `End`, `PageUp`, `PageDown`, `Pause`, `Menu`.
+- **Punctuation**: `SemiColon`, `Comma`, `Period`, `Quote`, `Slash`, `BackSlash`, `Equal`, `Dash`, `Tilde`, `LBracket`, `RBracket`.
+- **Numpad operators**: `Add`, `Subtract`, `Multiply`, `Divide` (and their `Numpad`-prefixed variants).
+
+The left and right variants of a key (such as `LShift`/`RShift`) are reported separately, so a key picker or the "Last pressed key" expression will return the specific side that was used.
