First, multibutton is broken. Proof:
It always only shows either 1, 10, or 100. According to the documentation, it should show values such as 101 when you left and right click simultaneously. The tutorial part: I realized that you could take the button value mod 8, and bit 0 of the result would be if you left clicked, bit 1 would be if you middle clicked, and bit 2 would be if you right clicked. But since it's broken, this tip is temporarily useless until it gets fixed. |

It doesn't work when the mouse is outside of the window though. |

Most of the time, this shouldn't be too much of a problem since you don't click outside the Turing window to do stuff in the Turing window. Here's an update to my previous code using Mouse.Where to the best of its ability (like you showed it's not functioning properly):
Overall, it seems we can't get full information about mouse buttons when the mouse is not in an active Turing window. On the other hand, this should rarely be troublesome as you don't tend to care about mouse input when the mouse is not in the window. |
