I just discovered an incredible feature of BTT the other day! If you assign multiple actions to the same keyboard shortcut you get a dropdown menu with all of the shortcuts listed with the ability to navigate and select the menu via the keyboard. You can also map these to a mouse button if your device supports button remapping. For example, whenever I press the function+up button on the side of my house it copies whatever I've highlighted; when I press funtion+down it brings up my shortcut menu. See video.
I have a few categories of these actions if anyone is interested!
@Cabana0309 I had also set this up once, but unfortunately it is not possible to display this menu of actions better with an image or even create a submenu.
I then found the app Keyboard Maestro. There I now create the menus and use BTT touch gestures as triggers.
Here is an example with the app Snagit:

Oooo... and the plot thickens! Thanks for sharing!! I would be interested in learning about said categories.
Also @appleianer, I need to know how you produced that video! I am toying around with the concept of teaching people how I use technology, and that's a great way of showing off the trackpad functions I've implemented into my workflow.

Hi @Cabana0309, I will make you a video about it and my workflow in ScreenFlow. This can also be used in other screencast apps. You will have the video by tomorrow evening (German time).
