How to do environmental takedowns?

"ENVIRONMENT TAKEDOWNS
Batman can use certain objects in
the environment, such as electrical
boxes or overhead lamps, to instantly
knock out an opponent. Position
Batman near one of these objects
and press Alt + 2 near a highlighted
enemy to perform the
Environment Takedown."

Environmental objects have a soft blue glow to them. When you're within the vicinity of one and so is an enemy, the enemy will also acquire this blue glow. At this point you either look at the object or the enemy and just SPACE + LMB and it'll wreck them.

Yeah I thought it was Space + LMB, but that's what the manual says so I thought I got confused.

Space + LMB is a combination attack with your Batmobil.

It uses the same combination. Seeing as they're both technically enviromental.

Totally correct. SPACE + LMB is for Batmobile takedowns, environmental takedowns and also picking up crate/baseball bats off the ground. I think that combination covers all the 'environmental' stuff.

And to think; Conker's Bad Fur Day made such a big deal about having a single context-sensitive button. :P

Play a decent game like Shadow of Mordor or Dark souls and try to forget this awful game exists.

close your eyes, mash all the buttons in a mad panic, scream and hey presto you've grabbed a light fitting and smashed it in the villans face. Well works for me anyhow :)

I had trouble with this yesterday doing an AR mission objective. You press square and X on a ps4 controller to do an environmental takedown when a bad guy and object both glow blue. I am also on a keyboard and mouse so I had to figure out what those buttons were. Square and X are "strike" and "run" on the ps4 controller so whatever you have mapped for "run" and "strike", they must be pressed simultaneously. So for me I have to press "F" and the LEFT mouse button at the same time to perform an environmental takedown. I hope this helps you.

The only problem I encountered with AK is that the "Environmental Takedown" prompt never appears when the enemy and an object both glow blue. But I can still perform this takedown but it's often hit and miss.
