'Sticky' Control Buttons

Post by yaccri »

For operations that require multiple strikes of a button (like dimming or moving the shutters up/down), it would be nice to be able to determine the behavior of a button like:

- If a button is pressed (cliked) for a very short time (determined by the user), one type of operation will happen (like turning lights to the maximum)

- If a button is pressed but not released within that specified time , It will repeat a specified operation (different from the above) in specified intervals, until that button is released.



Thanks,

Yoram,



Good ideas. I'll add them to the list.



I used to have the buttons rapidly repeat their action if held down, but I never got it to work well, so I pulled it out. Maybe I'll take a different approach.
