Hello,

Is there any way to detect that Mouse-Button-#4 is being pressed (held down) while Mouse-Left-Button is being pressed, like simultaneously pressing both mouse buttons? I'd like to trigger a hotkey when that condition occurs, if possible.

Thank you for your help!!

Check out "button chording". The user manual covers it hopefully enough, you just need to know what to look for :)
