Mode Manager feature request (don't switch mode if switch is on)

It would be nice if we could specify in Mode Manager to not switch into a mode if a certain switch is still on.

I know that this can be done using RM, but I would like to see it in the MM app itself.

[Edit - Removed my second part due to it already being in MM]

It does allow buttons and switches to be used to set modes.

True (I missed that even though I've seen it a hundred times lol), but it doesn't prevent a mode to be set if a switch is on.

So, if my Living Room TV switch is on, don't set Home - Overnight at 12:00 AM.

True. I don't know how difficult that would be to put in the app with pausing modes that are based on time. Could be set somehow in a rule? Triggers (Living Room TV changes) (time is 0000): If between 0000 and 0200 and Living Room TV off then set mode to overnight. It has been a while since I set up the modes, but if you could set overnight with a button instead of by time, you could make a virtual button for the rule to press.
