How to differentiate mouse click from key press for NSButton in IBAction

Question

Currently I have an IBAction for a NSButton, and the NSButton also has a key equivalent. I would like to know if there is a way inside my IBAction function "strike"

- (IBAction)strike:(id)sender

that can tell me whether this action is triggered by a mouse click on the button or a press of the key equivalent of the button?

Answer 1

get the current event using -currentEvent and using if loop check for mouse click count

if([theEvent clickCount]>=1)
{
mouse clicked;
}
else
{
button pressed;
}
