Hi @Tom_Herok and congrats with your new Homey

A dual button function, or better descibed as a 2 step button function, is quite easy to create:

This is possible when you want to use a standard flow as well:

You’ll have to fiddle a bit with the delay time. Like, if the curtain takes 30s to close, set it to 29 or 30s to have the second push stop the curtain motor while it’s running.

My guess the words “double click” in the title created a bit of misunderstanding the question. It’s not related to “real” double click functionality.

If you create a YES/NO-variable ‘ Screen Direction UP’ you can use the same button for opening and closing the screen:

Add this logic-card after the timer-logic-card.

Hoi Wim

Dan voor deze simplere opstelling, maar lukt mij niet. Ik wil dus als ik op de knop druk, dat ie naar beneden gaan, en als ik weer op de knop druk terwijl hij naar beneden gaat, stil zetten…..

Zo werkte hij nog niet.

Tom
