How to Detect Short, Long, and Double Clicks with Arduino

[@georgechambers3197]

That is one handy library. I have some projects that use 5 or 6 buttons that can now be downsized to just a couple buttons. Thanks, Paul, another good video!

[@learnelectronics]

+George Chambers Glad you enjoyed.

[@michaelpadovani9566]

Might be the easiest library i have ever seen. But can be used to control complicated stuff. Amen!

[@learnelectronics]

+Michael Padovani That's what we like, power with ease of use.

[@trick2stab314]

Short and explained very clearly. Liked and keep them coming.

[@matheokoning4456]

Thank you. This is perfect. Nice and simple and it works great. Would be great if a triple and four click option can also be added to this library.

[@RapidBoss08]

They are available as "multiClick()" in the library. Here is the example given in the included "InterruptOneButton" sketch: void multiClick() { int n = button.getNumberClicks(); if (n == 3) { Serial.println("tripleClick detected."); } else if (n == 4) { Serial.println("quadrupleClick detected."); } else { Serial.print("multiClick("); Serial.print(n); Serial.println(") detected."); } ledState = !ledState; // reverse the LED digitalWrite(PIN_LED, ledState); } // multiClick

Pls I want 3 button, 3 output code, one output to function at a time according to the push btn press. like if btn1 is single click (led1, HIGH) (led2, LOW) (led3, LOW) else if btn1 is long click (led1, LOW) (led2, LOW) (led3, LOW) if btn2 is single click (led1, LOW) (led2, HIGH) (led3, LOW) else if btn1 is double click (led1, LOW) (led2, LOW) (led3, LOW) if btn3 is single click (led1, LOW) (led2, LOW) (led3, HIGH) else if btn3 is long click (led1, LOW ) (led2, LOW) (led3, LOW)

[@user-vg1ey9km8i]

this really improved functionality for my arduino gaming foot pedal. thanks man

[@dogeeatsveggies]

if only i found this earlier... been debouncing my face out and heres a simple way to do it. thank you sir! God bless you

[@godstimeoghenevwedeobruche4051]

Sir, i want to add more button. What is the way to do it?

[@hyildiz6851]

WOW! What an awesome library. Thank a lot!

[@dougsewell664]

This is perfect for my remote control application. Thank you!

[@jacobalaba2756]

Your videos helps me a lot

[@uktoker71]

Very handy library indeed. Thanks for sharing.

[@learnelectronics]

+uktoker71 welcomed

[@nawawisight911]

Thanks you so much sir, I am very happy with your support code from you!.

[@MrBobWareham]

Wow so simple yet so easy thank you for your explanation as always was good all you have to do now is Arduin the rain to stop now if you can make the rain stop with Arduino we all will want to know!!

[@gerrekurquidez3044]

I have 2 questions; 1. How do you write a program to create a double click function on the button to have the motor turn a certain amount of degrees, hold it as long as you hold down the button, than rewind back the exact way when you release it? 2. Could and how do you program/solder that circuit into smaller arduino models?

[@dpu3100]

awesome library, thanks

[@munashenyandebvu2152]

Thank you very much this is very useful. Would anyone know how to switch between functions using those different clicks and make those functions keep looping?

[@stevetobias4890]

Very cool, been looking for something like this for start and end of daylight saving time on a small weather station with a calender on a 1602 display in a small case I have with 4 buttons. Want to switch between clock, current temp/humidity, forecast as well as having an on/off button to save battery power. Thinking an ESP8266 would be perfect for this project.

[@jacobcook1450]

Holy shit what a gem! Thank you so much honestly, that's neat as! Cheers!

[@kevinpreller1380]

Would love to see this while using a shift register. like a 74HC165

[@cornellsludggedrip]

How do I see on the serial monitor what values I am getting in as input whenever I press the button, whether it be a double click, long click, or single click?

[@escaperoomberkel3620]

Wauw, this video Saved me a lot of time. Thanks

[@VictorRodriguez-cg1kg]

Excellent explanation

[@robbhalverson7725]

Great video. I am a newb to arduino can you suggest how to declare more buttons for this library. Thanks for the video.

[@ausprobierendannweisstdues8686]

short and understandable thanks!

[@wallygames99]

is there a way to keep te leds blinking in the double click code because as it is now the turn of after one blink

[@williamjhmarks]

Any idea if there is a similar library for rpi? This is almost exactly what I need for a part of a much, much larger project on rpi in python, but I can’t find anything this simple and nicely laid out!

[@learnelectronics]

+William Marks I'm just learning Python myself, so I'm not up on the libraries. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

[@belsorcaggiano3242]

Hi Mattias Hertel, I ask you a question, do you not have a library that double-clicks an exit in high and with a single click the vuleva to put in low?

[@stewartrv]

Nice one. I suppose it's interrupt driven so best to not hang around long in the attached functions or doesn't it matter?

[@learnelectronics]

+stewartrv I don't think it really matters, but it's not going to read the buttons until your function completes.

[@thosabhornisarankura3030]

Nice and excellent work

[@EvergreenLP]

Thank you! Saved my day! 😁😀

[@apollwntsirg1021]

Thank you soooo sooo much !! Very helpful

[@tanishqmathili7470]

This is very useful , Thanks, Sir

[@j.w.8663]

How come this works on an analog pin for the button? The library on github talks about using a digital pin.

[@learnelectronics]

All pins are digital pins, the analog pins are just attached to the ADC. They work either way.

[@gartmorn]

Simple but effective. What's more to say?

[@vistopmotion9658]

Thanks for the help!!

[@indikasujeewa9124]

hi can I use this function for four button in one program

[@taranagnew436]

will the Onebutton liberary work with a LCD keypad shield and where can you get those caps for the buttons?

[@samuelramirez1821]

IS it possible to make the difference between simple click and double click without Arduino?

[@MUHAMMADYAWARIFRAHEEM]

Very informative video

[@billreeve7912]

I’m looking at using this code for a project I want to turn something on as in the video but then if I want to I want to be able to cancel with a single press any advice of videos to help me?

[@chriswheeler1283]

is there a way to use this code with a resistor in the circuit? like the standard "button" example??

[@r00yce]

does the library support tripple presses or how many presses I want?

[@sayantanmaiti2513]

Can you suggest me a cheap microcontroller ( I mean cheaper than pro mini)..to use this RGB LED for attaching it on my showpiece?Any suggestions are welcome..thanks

[@rajarshimondal1343]

Use ATtiny 85 It is cheapest arduino comparable ic. Best of luck and you can check my chanel too

[@topten7064]

Thank you very much

[@lukecheung5777]

By tweaking the code a little, it could work on any other input devices with 1 and 0 output, right?

[@learnelectronics]

Yes

[@Ioan_S]

Hi, it's not working on a Wemos D1 mini I've set the only A0 pin to the button but got nothing... Please can someone help ?

[@ymautomation3983]

Thanks sir good explain

[@omoivo6525]

Hello i Need help! How to Switch between 2 frquency with 1 LED. Problem is maybe in Loop Code.

[@ajthomas9071]

code copy and pasted across, saying "longclick" was not declared in this scope. whats going on?

[@iamfyrus]

Still figuring how to implement it for oled display

[@sotiriskordas1072]

Does anybody know if this library is implemented using interrupts for the buttons or is it polling?

[@dichtudong_com]

love you!Thanks

[@ser7ser7i]

I feel free to comment i comment, i am out, peace :)

[@TheManOMystery]

If this ran on a battery operated device. And since it checks for the button state every few milliseconds. Will this drain the battery even when not in use?

[@learnelectronics]

Yes

[@TheManOMystery]

@@learnelectronicsThank you. But how to over come this? Is it possible to "wake up" the circuit when butting initially pressed?

[@learnelectronics]

That is beyond me. I'm an electrical engineer, not a programmer. Sorry.

[@Petrateipel]

Is it Possible to use a Digital Pin?

[@Agentti_Kowalski]

can you use more than one button ( Edit:Yes you can) :)

[@devilvortex1]

I try it but more as two buttons it doesn't work

[@sivabandaru2242]

it is possible in if else looped program ??

[@moatazmaged5305]

Hello sir, how it will differ in the code if i want to turn on a led and keep it on After the 5th push button press and release

Hi hello! newbie here… just wanna ask how where and why to program such hardware hahaha… forgive me, I'm just really curious how do this stuffs works hehe

[@rajarshimondal1343]

Can we use digital pin for the button also??

[@indikasujeewa9124]

yes it is working

[@ser7ser7i]

Thank you

[@insightmanners6876]

damn I can not use this library in stm8 dev board, what an unlucky day

[@taranagnew436]

will this work on a LCD keypad shield?

[@learnelectronics]

Sure

[@akeelfazal1968]

thanks

[@DungTran-jm6wx]

Thanks for everything you share. im from viet nam

[@赖才政]

amazing

[@brentroberson7211]

what if you have 2 different buttons? does this work with multiple buttons?

[@brentroberson7211]

I'm trying to make a scoreboard that adds every time a button is pushed and subtracts every time a button is double clicked. I have two buttons but I dont know how to differentiate between the two

[@TechieBaksh]

Yes , possible!!

[@mdsultanmahamud9428]

2-12 LEd button on(1000);off.

[@deadchords4919]

cool

[@alexmisiaszek6123]
