#### ANY action on single/double press for switches AND buttons (rules-based)
There is a way to program this using rules if you wish to sacrifice a variable.<br>
**Commands:**
```
SwitchMode 5
Rule1
on switch1#state==2 do add1 1 endon
on switch1#state==2 do power1 2 endon
on var1#state!=0 do backlog delay 6;var1 0 endon
on var1#state==2 do publish cmnd/othertasmota/POWER toggle endon
Rule1 on
```
**Explanation:**
- each toggle of the switch triggers first condition and adds 1 to our variable (var1 in the example),
- each toggle of the switch toggles the associated relay (```power1 2``` - but can do anything else instead, ```publish``` for example)
- when var1 changes to non zero, we set it back to 0 but after a ```delay``` (arbitrarily chosen 6 here - 0.6 seconds)
- when var1 reaches 2 (i.e. the switch has been toggled twice within the last 0.6 seconds), desired action is triggered (here: ```publish``` to othertasmota)
**Result:**
Every time you press the switch your light toggles state (as it should) but if you do it twice in a rapid succession, you can trigger another action elsewhere.
