Button Controllers Local Variables?

📢 Feedback Feature Requests
1

Hello,

Would it be possible to ever get local variables available within the button controller application? Right now I have button control rules across RM and button controller app because some of my button rules require local variable. I know I can do it all in RM, but for the sake of organization and ease of use, I would like all button controllers to be in the button controller APP. I like how it organizes different presses under a parent device.

Thanks,

Josh

No, not necessarily. I guess it didn’t fully cross my mind. It just seems like less of global variable thing and more a local variable thing.

Local Variables will be added to Button Rule 5.1 in the next release. However, you need to realize that those are local to a particular button, not across all of the Button Rules for a given instance of Button Controller. If you need a variable that spans all of the buttons, it will have to be a Hub Variable.
