Possible to have a layer-switching key convert to Alt when necessary? #34

If this is not the correct place to ask questions, then please let me know where to ask.

I have an Ergodox running TMK that works great.

I have a key that I hold down to activate a movement layer that has arrows, PGUP, PGDN, etc. ACTION_LAYER_MOMENTARY(6).

I would like to also have keys on that layer to send Alt-Tab and Alt-Shift-Tab to switch between Apps on Windows.

So I would like the same key that I hold down to activate the movement layer, to send Alt, but only when I press certain keys on the movement layer.

Also it should only release the Alt key when I let go of the layer-switching key.

Is this possible using TMK?
