Hi!
Me again here :-).

So I got my head spinning trying to solve a behaviour involving titles in an overlay. Hope I can explain what I want and my problems creating it.

So I want to run my name titles in overlay 3 (got 10 of them sharing position and using overlay 3).
I want them to transition in and show for 8 seconds and then automatically transition out with the animations created in GT title designer.
I want to have them on 10 indiviual buttons on my streamdeck running Companion software.

All the above I can easily achieve in different ways by either using transition in - wait command - transition out in companion or by using a trigger on the input which transition it out 8 seconds after transition it in.

Here enters the problem.
If there is a human error and wrong name is pushed I want to be able to push the same button again to quickly stop/hide the title and then quickly press the right button.
The toggle overlay function works to quickly hide the title with next press on the same button.
But since the timed function to transition out overlay3 is still active on button1 after the first press, it will transition out the next correct title if I press it within the eight second window.

Hope I managed to explain this problem and what I try to accomplish. which is to be able to have timed transitions on a title input on an overlay using a button but also be able to toggle the overlay off with a second press on the same button, without the next input on this overlay turning off if it is displayed within the timed window of the first input.

Thanks in advance for input regarding this!
