I would be pretty cool to be able to copy button triggers to a step triggers, or app trigger, device and machine triggers
lets say that we already have a next button that is doing some comparations before continue to the next step, and we want to implement a foot pedal to go to the next step. in this case it would be cool to just copy that trigger instead of writing down it again.
This is a great idea, and something we definitely hear on occasion from users. The existing copying logic is a relatively new addition, but it is easily my favorite app editor feature.
There is a ton of work going on around how triggers work (to make them more intuitive and more powerful), this feature is part of that work. I can’t commit to a date yet, but parts of that project are just starting to be released, I would expect most of that work to go live in the next 6 months. Can’t share too much about the specifics of the changes coming in that project, but as an app builder, I’m pretty excited.
Any step level trigger can now be changed into any other type of step level trigger (in r235). We don’t yet support copying a step-level trigger to a widget, but it’s on the way.
