Show Tool Tip When a certain Button is Held down & Removetool Tip when button is Released / Up

[matsuikohiroka]

need help creating an example script of tool tip

Scenario : when i held down / press down CTRL a tooltip will appear , the tooltip will only dissappear if

1. the CTRL modifier is released
2. when CTRL key is held down then combined with KEYS ( ex. Ctrl + A B C so forth ) or combined with modifier keys ex. ( Ctrl + SHIFT ) ( ctrl + alt ) ( ctrl + alt + shift ) so forth

thank you.

{ ;All pressed keys and buttons will be listed
    ExcludeKeys .= "{Shift}{Control}{Alt}{WheelUp}{WheelDown}"
