BetterTouchTool: Tab Key for Left/Right Arrow Actions

Configuration Help & General Discussion
1

Hi everyone,

I want to set up the Tab key as follows in BetterTouchTool:

•	Pressing Tab once will simulate pressing the left arrow key.
•	Pressing Tab twice (double press) will simulate pressing the right arrow key.

Please help me configure this setting in BetterTouchTool.

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

Is there anyone who can assist me with this?

Thank you very much!

you can do it like this:

Example Preset:
tab.bttpreset (7.0 KB)

Setup a keyboard shortcut that blocks the standard tab key and does nothing:

Setup two key sequences.

One for the single tab:

Make sure it waits for further input before triggering:

Thank you very much, Andreas. I managed to get it working.

I have one small request, if you don’t mind. I’d like this preset to only apply when I’m on a specific website in Edge, for example, on youtube.com or any URL with youtube.com as the main domain.

Could you please help me add this functionality? Thank you so much!
