Syntax
public class ButtonWithTwoModifiers : InputBindingComposite<float>
Remarks

This composite can be used to require two other buttons to be held while using the control that triggers the action. This is most commonly used on keyboards to require two of the modifier keys (shift, ctrl, or alt) to be held in combination with another key, e.g. "CTRL+SHIFT+1".

// Create a button action that triggers when CTRL+SHIFT+1
// is pressed on the keyboard.
var action = new InputAction(type: InputActionType.Button);
action.AddCompositeBinding("TwoModifiers")
    .With("Modifier1", "<Keyboard>/leftCtrl")
    .With("Modifier1", "<Keyboard>/rightCtrl")
    .With("Modifier2", "<Keyboard>/leftShift")
    .With("Modifier2", "<Keyboard>/rightShift")
    .With("Button", "<Keyboard>/1")

Note that this is not restricted to the keyboard and will preserve the full value of the button.

// Create a button action that requires the A and X button on the
// gamepad to be held and will then trigger from the gamepad's
// left trigger button.
var action = new InputAction(type: InputActionType.Button);
action.AddCompositeBinding("ButtonWithTwoModifiers")
    .With("Modifier1", "<Gamepad>/buttonSouth")
    .With("Modifier2", "<Gamepad>/buttonWest")
    .With("Button", "<Gamepad>/leftTrigger");
