Notes.

You can modify standard actions assigned to each mouse movement - using Mouse page of program options.

If you use window management operations on Sigma Launcher dialogs, these actions will not take effect.

Usually, your command will be processed only if the window allows the operation. For example, not all windows can be minimized, restored, etc.
