Cancel timed action "this rule" option missing

[Keo]

I seem to remember there being an option to select “this rule" when creating a cancel rule timers action. I no longer see that option as of update 2.2.8.141.

It was there with the last release because I created a rule in 5.0 using that option.

Can anyone confirm?

This was reported in another thread, and I'm seeing it to when I test (on 2.2.8.141, though I'm not sure if it started sometime or hasn't been there since the first 2.2.8). Here's the other thread:

RM 5.0 Cancel Self

I am trying to migrate some of my rules from RM 4.0 to 5.0. I am working on one that if the door is closed, it locks the door after a cancelable delay. Otherwise, if the door is open, it cancels the prior rule. (so, if you open the door after closing it, the rule stops). I could find the cancel Timed Actions ** this rule** until I updated to 138, however now it only seems I can cancel other rules but not the current one? Is anyone else seeing this, or has it moved somewhere and I can't find it…

Tagging @bravenel for awareness again.

In the meantime, if you're using "This Rule" and are only trying to cancel a delay, there is an easy workaround (I often see people sort of over-using it for this purpose, but you might be more familiar with RM than that ).

Yeah, that got dropped inadvertently. Will fix it.

I needed Cancel Rule Timers to stop a fade. As a work around until it gets fixed, I created a second rule that has no trigger and does nothing but Cancel Rule Timers in the first rule. Then I run that "cancel" rule in the first rule. Hokey but it works. When the cancel rule timers is fixed, I'll only need to replace that one line in the first rule.
