Hello there
Yesterday I played with my sheet and wondered if it is possible to get a mode on timer.
Such as this
Mode 1-> mode 2 for 500ms and return to mode 1 automatically . Mode 1 has the increment mode on tap .
I tried with several functions with decrement mode with constant and no dice, also increment mode with delay on then decrement mode with less than but not fast enough because the delay on. (300ms is the lowest I can go).
Also increment mode with normal then decrement mode with less than but I wouldn’t able to have a second input (no tap and delay technique)
no biggie but wondered if it is possible.
Thanks

I wanna say yes but I am confused as to what you're trying to achieve.cause it seems like you want mode 1to do a specific thing and then mode 2 to do a specific thing before reverting

this is the closest i can achieve with the limitations of the QS. I was going to use repeat for mode 2 specifically but the tap in mode one is getting in the way of achieving my work around. It's best to separate your two actions you're trying to accomplish and the link above works pretty well you can change the buttons around to what you see fit. I color-coded what needs to be paired together.

initially it was gonna look like this
[mode 1]
increment_mode, tap 999, lip

[mode 2]
increment_mode, repeat 1, constant  [ supposed to cancel the first instant of decrement]
decrement_mode, repeat 2, constant [goes back a mode  the 2nd instant it triggers]

I've used this in the past but the tap in this situation is causing the increment mode in mode 2 to delay, so It can't keep up with the decrement mode in mode two

I see now! Thanks  for showing me this. Dang that we can’t use the tap and delay technique but nice to know this trick, thanks again!
