How do you get a joystick button 'Release' event???
« on: July 10, 2023, 12:56:07 PM »
Just like the title says..  I want to play a click sound when I press my global PTT button down.  I have that working fine.  But how can I find when the button is then released, so I can add the click at the end?

Two main methods:

Use a second command assigned to the same button, but with the "Shortcut is invoked only when all buttons are released" option enabled


Or, add a loop to your command that waits for the button to be released.
E.G.
Code: [Select]
Play sound, 'internal:Iamon'
Start Loop While :  Joystick 1 Button 1 Is Pressed
End Loop
Play sound, 'internal:Iamoff'
