Default More function keys in S3L

Hi all,

Here's some little trick to get "more" function keys: you can use Touch Strip as a "modifier" for the function keys.

Create an event, set trigger operation to "AND" and add two triggers to it:
1. "Function Switch 1", "Pressed"
2. "Touchstrip Zone 1", "Pressed"

Duplicate this event and change Touchstrip trigger to be "Touchstrip Zone 2", "Pressed".
Duplicate this event again and change Touchstrip trigger to be "Touchstrip Zone 3", "Pressed".
And the final one: "Touchstrip Zone 4", "Pressed".

You used only one function key, but with help of the touch strip, you multiplied number of different events to 4. Going this way for all function keys, you can get 16*4=64 event sources by such two-finger combinations. Keep in mind, that you can press both any zone and any function key with only one hand.
