Setting up the Mouse Click triggers:

Add the mouse click trigger to your Actions Organiser, as described in Creating and Editing Actions. The Modifier tab will automatically appear when you add the action.
Tick the Shift, Ctrl or Alt boxes in the Modifier tab if the user is required to hold down these keys as they click the mouse trigger you have selected. To select one or more modifier, tick the checkbox beside the name. To cancel the select, click again, so that it is no longer ticked.

Note:
In most cases you will ignore the Modifier tab and move straight to step 3 below.

Click on the Actions tab in the Actions dialog to select an action or actions to add to the trigger.
Go to Choosing an Action to list all of the actions you can add to your trigger.

Note:
Don’t forget there are also mouse movement triggers in the Mouse menu.
