Re: [pygame] BUG: display.init() confuses key mods

[Phil Hassey <philhassey@xxxxxxxxx>]

Well, after adding my small fix to the toggle_fullscreen function, it won't just go out of fullscreen if the user presses enter again, however it won't go out of full screen if the user presses alt-enter.  They have to do it twice then it goes out.
 
 Not too big of a deal, but something still seems to be wrong...

get_pressed also reports the incorrect value.  I think this is either a pygame or SDL issue. 

However, I found that if I use

pygame.key.set_mods(0)

to reset the keyboard mods, that appears to fix the issue for the most part.  Kind of a hack though...

if you're using a separate variable to hold the state of the ALT key,
you could just
reset it to false whenever someone goes fullscreen,
and then do a get_pressed or whatever to find out if alt actually still
is pressed
once you're fullscreened.
