PhpStorm - switch recent files by clicking side mouse button

When I switch between two recent editor tabs I use Ctrl + Tab shortcut. This feature of editor navigation called "switcher" in PhpStorm (Settings -> Keymap -> Other -> Switcher 'recent files' actions). "Switcher" fast shows list of recent files and immediately AUTOCLOSE after short-cut keys releases up.

But when I try to set up mouse side key on this function, "switcher" window shows and NOT closes on mouse button up! Is there a way to set up mouse side key to fast switch RECENT tabs? (in natural order tabs switch works good by mouse keys, but not in recent order)

I hope you understand what I need, sorry for my eng

The thing is, if it worked the way you want it to work, it wouldn't be possible to switch to any file apart from the previous one, as Switcher would open and close immediately.
There has to be a modifier key that would trigger the switch on the keystroke release event - you can assign this shortcut to something like Alt+Mouse 5 or Ctrl+Mouse 5, and it will do the job.
