Mark,

That makes perfect sense and thanks for the explanation. This script is far beyond anything I've used before but in addition to providing the functionality I was seeking, it gives me a great example from which to learn more about creating my own commands since, for me, studying scripts is always much more productive when I already understand what they do.

I recognize the convenience of having a single command with three beginning options (left, right & middle) and two ending options (down & up). However, I'm wondering if the code were to be modified into a form which does not include the beginning and ending options (ie so that a fixed command is defined and only a single action ensues), if it would then be more conducive to a change in the command. For example, the command could be "DownClick" and the action could be to hold down the middle mouse button.

I realize that going that route would necessitate six separate command scripts to provide the same options as your single script currently does but for my remedial knowledge, I think it would be a more usable in that form. Plus, I want to see if, having a script for only one of the six actions, I can determine how it must be altered to enable another action.

Thanks

"ALOT" is not a word — it never has been a word and it never will be a word.

"A LOT" is 2 words. Remember it as though there's [A LOT OF SPACE] between them.

If you created a command just to hold the left mouse button down it would look something like the following screenshot:

Thanks Mark

That's perfect and just what I was hoping for Mark.

Now I've got your code with its options and six other new commands in which I can modify the Command Name.

Many many thanks!
