I've always used press. Does someone have a Microsoft Manual of Style
handy? I think that's what they prescribe.
If that were my sentence and the context allowed for it, I'd actually
rewrite the sentence to remove the 'ings'.

Hi
Any suggestions for a sub to "pressing" in the below statement?
"Pressing the Shift key while clicking the button updates all
parameters"
My colleagues use "hold".
Thanks & Regards
Nigel
