Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/keycastr/keycastr/issues/243

I need to demo graphics apps where command keys modify mouse clicks and drags, but in default mode KeyCastr won't display them unless used in combination with a regular key. Is this something that can be enabled or added?

I completely agree this would be great. It's pretty much the next thing I'd like to add. It's mostly a matter of figuring out some sane defaults and configuration options based on what's been suggested in #228 and other issues.

Hey, I wanted to ask what the status of this feature is. Meanwhile the request is already a few months old and I could really use this feature as well right now.

This will certainly be a nice addition. I have a similar (if not the same) use case for Adobe InDesign that I need to demonstrate the use of pressing ⌘ + ⇧ before click-dragging an object and continuing to hold these two command keys down until the cursor has been released.

Thanks in advance!

in the upcoming version, clicks plus modifiers will be shown in the currently active visualizer, if enabled.
