Using Wacom radial menu with ZBrush brushes

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

It appears to me that the Wacom radial menu is designed to interpret multiple keystrokes as chords. But I’d like to use the radial menu for my ZBrush brushes, which uses sequential keystrokes (b + c + l for clay brush). Is there any way to set up the Wacom Tablet radial menu setting so it will understand sequential keystrokes for the brushes. I suppose it would have to be some type of “pause” keystroke and express the next keystroke as a different command.

I know I can use hot keys for a small subset of brushes but I like to use lots of brushes and I’d like to see them organized as a series of submenus within the radial menu.

Thanks, Norman

I use the radial menu in Photoshop but for Zbrush you will have a huge advantage using a custom panel and assign it to the third button of the stylus or to a key in the keyboard or Wacom. A lot more stuff in a smaller area with icons and even collapsible panels.

In any case you can assign any shortcut to the brushes that is not a sequential list of keys and that can be easily send to the radial menu. Not sure if you knew it already and simply wanted the use the default shortcuts.
