Shift Layer - double press and single press

[tij]

I set up Double Press to go to Shift Layer B (Custom).

When I Double Press ... it goes to Shift Layer B as expected, but once in Shift Layer B - it also triggers singe press in Shift Layer B.

Is this intentional or is it bug?

Please record a short video where this behavior will be captured

Ok ... here is setup

Layer 0:
PS button single click is map to "1" on keyboard
PS button single click shift to Layer 2 - Radial
PS button double click shift to Layer 1

Layer 1:
PS button single click is map to "1" on keyboard
PS button single click shift to Layer 2 - Radial
PS button double click shift to Layer 0

Layer 2 is Radial buttons layer

Expected behaviour:
double click PS on Layer 0 goes to Layer 1

double click PS on Layer 1 goes to Layer 0

Actual behaviour:
double click PS on Layer 0 goes to Layer 1 THEN goes to Layer 2

double click PS on Layer 1 goes to Layer 0 THEN goes to Layer 2

Strange because keyboard mapping of "1" never gets triggered ... which is assined to single click of PS that supposed to shift to Layer 2

Please send me the config you are using. Your configs are stored here: C:\Users\Public\Documents\reWASD\Profiles
I need the correspondent *.rewasd file.

I'm not sure that I understand how you want to get 2 Single Press actions in one layer (based on your description above).

The behavior you expect can be achieved if in layer 1 you remove the jump in the Shift Radial Menu from the PS button and leave only mapping “1”.
Which is exactly what I did in this config.

Final result:
Layer 0 PS button Single Press → jump to Shift Radial Menu.
Layer 0 PS button Double Press → jump to Shift layer 1 (Digital Stick)
Layer 1 PS button Single Press → keyboard mapping "1"
Layer 1 PS button Double Press → return to the main layer.

Keyboard mapping "1" was just for testing. The important part is Layer shifting.

Radial menu is for controlling emulators ... stuff like reset, rewind, save, load, etc

Layer 0 is normal controller
Layer 1 has left stick act like D pad

Double press PS switch between layer 0 and layer 1

Single press PS allow access to Radial menu in both Layer 1 and Layer 2 ... so I can access emulator commands in both layers

So I need this:

Layer 0 PS button Single Press → jump to Shift Radial Menu.
Layer 0 PS button Double Press → jump to Shift layer 1 (Digital Stick)
Layer 1 PS button Single Press → jump to Shift Radial Menu
Layer 1 PS button Double Press → return to the main layer

Problem ... double press jumps between Layers as intended ... BUT also goes straight to Radial Menu after switching to desired Layer ... which should not happen

It seems that I understand why it happens.

So, you have a complicated combination of different kinds of Shift modes, and it leads to this weird behavior. I've passed this on to the reWASD team.

As a temporary solution, I suggest releasing the button after the double press a bit longer. If you release the double press with a little delay, it won't go straight to Radial Menu. I've tested it several times, and it looks like this works.

Thanks for looking into this.

It would be great if Radial Menu can be used to jump to Shift Layers ... then I would not need these complicated button presses
