You are using a device trigger. Those sometimes don't have all functionality.
In your case you need to use a state trigger with the entity's state.
In other cases there is no entity and you have to look at the events in ZHA for example.

Aaaa where can i do that?
lavish canyon
In your automation editor you select Entity - State.

Aaaaaaaaaah cool!
Found it 😄 thanks!

Is there any way to make it shutdown in a instant so it's not in a sequence?
lavish canyon
What do you mean?
teal blaze
Right now i have 5 lights.
When i toggle them they go 1 then 2 then 3 then 4
I want them to do it on once
lavish canyon
Yes. Either the building block "Run in parallel" or by using light groups.
teal blaze
Where can i set light groups?
lavish canyon
It is one of the helper entities.
teal blaze
Aaah found it!
But i cant seem to get double click and holding in to work
lavish canyon
It will never go from double press to double press.
teal blaze
But how do i detect double press then?
lavish canyon
From anything to double press.
lavish canyon
You just choose nothing.
teal blaze
Yeah that dosent do anything
Aaah can see it dosent get registered
But via the app it does (Aqera)
lavish canyon
The attribute would have to change. If it doesn't it won't work that way.
teal blaze
Aaaaaaah damn
lavish canyon
The state trigger needs changes.
teal blaze
is there anything i can do ?
It's via zigbee aqara hub m2
On the app it says it's double pressing but not giving the info to home assistant
lavish canyon
If the state changes, you could use that to trigger and set the double press attribute as a state condition.
teal blaze
If the state changes, you could use that to trigger and set the double press att...
Yeah
teal blaze
Okay, i have now found out how to get the state change
I did it via MATTER
But now when i double press then do it again it dosent change anything
lavish canyon
You need either something changing, a working device trigger or you need to figure out if and what events are available to use.

Im having the same issue here. I can get that first initial double press to activate but any double presses after does not register. Wish HA had a solution for just a simple button press no matter the state.

Could you post what your trigger looks like now?
