Is it possible to perform the VO+shift+M command with the Trackpad?

Hello all,
I have restarted to use the Mac recently, after 3 years and I have a quick question for you.
I'm able to use the trackpad with no issues for almost all commands that I need, but don't remember if their is a way to open the context menu with it like we can usually do with the CTRL+Shift+M command.
If no default command exist, I think it is possible to assign custom gestures, but does this particular command is possible to add and if yes does somebody know how I can creat it?
Thanks,
Simon

I don't often use the trackpad, so am not sure if there's a default gesture to open context menus, but if there isn't, you can configure one in VoiceOver Utility > Commanders > Trackpad.

2 finger press brings up the context menu and is the same as VO-shift-M. Note that you'll need trackpad commander to be off in order for this to work. You can customize a gesture to accomplish this.
