Hello All!

I have built G1000, and have only one issue left - really hope that the community can help me.
Issue is related to pan-zoom-range button.

Hardware:
I am using such switch "rkjxt-1890304"
https://www.mouser.com/datasheet/2/15/rkjxt-1890304.pdf

Issue
This is pinout example:
Up - pin1
Down - pi2
Left - pin3
Right - pin4
Push - pin 5

It has next limitation: when side swith is activated it activates push as well, so

When I press Up, it triggers Pin1 and Pin 5
Down - triggers Pin2 and Pin5
...etc for left and right
Push - triggers only pin 5

So it means I cannot really use Push (even register it), since it blocks movement.

Proposed solution

The only solution is to assign next behaviour
Up - to be done by simultaneously triggered Pin1 and Pin5
Down - Pin2 and Pin5
Left - pin3 and Pin5
Right - Pin4 and Pin5
Push - pin 5

Question:
How can I do it? It seems such approach is a bit beyond initial functional?
