P8 ... anyone have a sample of how to get the Button to toggle a state?

I've got my Bespoke events setup and working (Detector test) setup an ON state and an OFF state.  However I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to get the P8 button to toggle the states.

It seems On = ButtonDown while Off = ButtonUp ... so I can't set the Bespoke event to either state otherwise the button just goes ON the OFF immediately when I press and release the button.

The button I testing with is the CS 777 APU Gen button, press the button in and it goes ON, press the button again and it goes OFF.  Pretty simple ... but I sure can't seem to get the toggle state mapped to my P8 button.  I can use two separate buttons to accomplish On/Off, but that's not what I really want to do.

Anything other than a Button Action = NOTHING doesn't work at all.

Any hints or samples?

Cheers, Rob.

    SOLVED ... I was able to setup the logic in the bespoke to get the toggle working ... I put up a quick web page for anyone interested in looking at what I did:  GFI P8 Toggle
