Making my own action
I'm trying to understand the basics, first steam deck. I want a button, that when pressed runs a command, then changes the icon for another. Any tutorials out there for this?

I see a dropdown showing
State 1 but I'm not finding an obvious way to add more states on both multi action and toggle action
(should note I'm using linux so most of the plugins are useless for me)Bot sure for multi action right now, but for toggle action there will be more states added when you add more things in the action.
this almost kind of works for me, I get only one of the images every other time I hold the key down
If you just press the button shortly it doesn't change?
no, I'm getting essentially "flickering"
On what Distro are you and how did you install OpenDeck?
ubuntu 24.10 and I did the deb, 2.4.2
steam deck xl
state 1 image->press->state 1 + state 2 image->press->state 1 image
state 1 image->press->state 1 + state 2 image-> press and HOLD->state 2 image->release->state 1 image
I guess I should probably scare up a non linux machine and see how it behaves :\
Ah I now know what you mean. Its an already know issue
#Bug: Toggle Action
Ahh yup! Exactly it. Well thanks for explaining how I'm being stupid with toggle/state. Looks like I should be diving into developing my own plugins anyways. But this helps me know I don't have a broken streamdeck.
If theres anything else I can help, feel free to ask. If you need help getting started with your own plugin also feel free to ask. And if you want a specific plugin, also ask, maybe we have an alternative.
