Determine short/long pushbutton press from script

[edgars]

In case a pushbutton doesn't have a long press feature or you need to be more flexible with long press time, here is a script which will do the job.
In the settings specify "Send 1" on rising edge, "Send 0" on falling edge. And add the following event-based script:

Code:

resolution = 0.25 -- short press check resolution longpress = 5 -- long press time in seconds value = event.getvalue() if value then   timeout = longpress / resolution   -- wait for timeout or OFF signal   while timeout > 0 do      os.sleep(resolution)      timeout = timeout - 1        value = grp.getvalue(event.dst)      if not value then         break      end    end   if timeout > 0 then      alert('short press')   else      alert('long press')   end end
