+If ommited the rule gets triggered by any key action and you can determine the event that triggered it with the `receivedEvent` method.
 Be aware that the events have a '.0' attached to them, like `2001.0` or `34.0`.
 So, testing for specific events looks like this:
 
 ```php
-if (receivedEvent.getEvent() == "1000.0")) {
+if (receivedEvent == "1000.0")) {
     //do stuff
 }       
 ```
