How to hold a keyboard Cntrl/Shift key in the background while execution.?

I need to automate a process where I need to select multiple files by holding a Cntrl Key in the background for sometime while the select activities are performing, then I need to release the Cntrl key. How can I automate this.?

If you use Click to select the files, the activity has “KeyModifiers” that you can set to Ctrl.

If the activities you are using don’t support KeyModifiers, you can simulate holding down the modifier key by using Type Into.

Hold down: "[d(ctrl)]"
Release key: "[u(ctrl)]"
