Custom Remote Manager (the behind the scenes)

I can’t imagine a way to do this within the Mapping Assistant.

Nor it could be possible.

@Mr_Master

It seems these options are not available to key commands, which is what a macro is i guess.

Exactly. This is because commands don’t have a value attached to them, they’re just getting triggered (OK let’s say this is value 1).

I would go for scripting in this case. When you press the button, call the Rewind function. When you release the button, call the Select > Event under Cursor function.

Even in my more advanced scripts, I avoided such manipulations/complications, simply because we can always have the Preferences→Editing→Auto Select Events under Cursor always enabled. To my workflow it’s crucial, because this way I split, glue, cut/copy/paste etc etc. So I didn’t find a good reason not to have it enabled. But then again, it’s my personal way of working.
