Hi
I'm quite new at this, and believe I completed my first real coding in LUA. The reason for this script was to be able to do lots of things using just one dumb push-button, connected to an input module. I scripted so that a short press switches the light ON/OFF, and a long press toggles between increasing and decreasing dimming, from a 1 bit input to a 4 bit dimming object.
No question involved, just wanted to share, and hopefully maybe help some of you.
NOTE: Future expansion of the script involves changing the effekt whether it's day or it's night, where my girlfriend wakes up, gotta pee, and want to turn on several different lights on a very low brightness. Therefore the script, and not just the usage of the build-in dimming function.
