The '''_BUTTONCHANGE''' function returns -1 or 1 when a specified button number on a controller device has been pressed or released.
{{PageSyntax}}
::: press = _BUTTONCHANGE(''button_number%'')
* Values returned are -1 for a press and 1 when a button is released. No press or release event returns zero.
* The ''button_number'' must be a number which does not exceed the number of buttons found by the [[_LASTBUTTON]] function.
* '''The number of [[_DEVICES]] MUST be read before using [[_DEVICE$]], [[_DEVICEINPUT]] or [[_LASTBUTTON]]!'''
* '''Note:''' The center mouse button is button number 2. Center can also be read using [[_MOUSEBUTTON]](3).
''Example:'' Reading multiple controller device buttons, axis and wheels.
