multiple events as one / trigger commands with timer

[Haddood]

1. in certain scenarios, we need to treat multiple events as one ... for the moment, I am dealing with it one by one, by creating 2 commands, the first is triggered by the event. it has a timer that get killed and restarted if the event trigger again, upon expiration of the timer it will trigger the second command that contain the actual macro ...

it will be way easier if we can have an option in the event to treat multiple events in a certain time frame as one


2. for the moment it is not possible to trigger a command with a timer, my work around, is I creat a macro, add an event ...the macro has just the VC command ... and it is kind of redundant if commands are recognised by VC as events as well ...

What kind of events are you talking about?  Where are they coming from?

I don't understand this at all.  Of course it is possible to trigger a command with a timer.

example, my main door sensor. the door s equipped with closer, so when someone is leaving, sometimes we forget stuff, or step out to pick the shoes ...etc. so the door open event triggers 3 or 4 times ...etc.

see attached image .... instead of triggering the Action it triggers an event ... ( previously i used wrong terminology, I meant action by command)
