New button tweak to choose between toggle mode (the current style) and push button mode

Skn3--
Can we get a new feature on the trusty button gadget? I propose that we should be able to choose if the button acts as a toggle or a push button. Toggle mode is exactly as we have it now. Push button would pulse the on value and then automatically switch off. It’s a small improvement but would be a nice bit of TLC!

    Yes, "pulse" option should be in the controller sensor by default!

    It's incredible how simply "pulsing" a button press solves a myriad of bugs and probems!

    Ok yeah would be great to have on the controller gadget too! Hadn’t thought of that.

    Perhaps the node gadget could get a new setting too. Let’s you toggle so it acts as a pulse input/output. Slight duplication of functionality with the signal modifier, however it would let you combine two gadgets and a wire. The signal+pulse on node inputs is a common enough practice that it could be improved!

    I've thought about this feature in the past... Now I tend to use a signal manipulator in custom remapper "pulse at ON and OFF," for this kind of testing.

    Yeah that’s what I do now too. Just bit of a waste of thermo, especially when you multiply it by tons of inputs and tons of copies of the thing
