Any way to design further steps on button release?
Posted: 31 December 2014, 05:57
I'm pretty familiar with many ShowX features by now, but not all yet. Is there any way to set a button to "Flash", have it do what you want normally, but then run extra steps after the button is released? This could come in EXTREMELY handy. I had an idea to write a scene where movers slowly move to a position and dim, then releasing the button would set off blinders, pop the movers up to full output and move them outward...like an explosion for dramatic effect.
To be clear, I know how to set the button to "Flash". I know how to make the scene do what I want before the release. It's the after-release that I'm wondering about.
Obviously, I can do this with 2 scenes...one to set up the movers, and the other to "explode". I'd just find it way more usable if I could hit one button, hold it as long as needed, then release it and have the scene finish the look I want.
Thanks for any help and advice.
