I'm using a Windows 8 touchscreen laptop and want to be able to perform modified clicks with touches. Most notably and frequently used for me is the Ctrl+Click action, as well as Shift+Click and Shift+Drag. The actions work perfectly fine if I use them with the trackpad on the laptop, but if I use the touchscreen none of the modifiers take effect.
I was surprised to find a lack of others having the same desire after several searches. I feel like there should be an easy solution to this, however; a piece of software or a script or simple setting-change that I'm just missing.
