Basic Information:

Printer Model:

Host / SBC

Be sure to check our “Knowledge Base” Category first. Most relevant items, e.g. error messages, are covered there

I want to make a macro that checks the state of that button and depending on its state, do something. For example, something like:

{% if MY_BUTTON == “PRESSED” %}
do something…
{% else %}
do something…
{% endif %}
…

I’m sorry I didn’t attach it because I don’t have any errors with my configuration, I’m just thinking about making a macro that does what I mentioned above.

See Status reference - Klipper documentation

Example:

{% if printer["gcode_button MY_BUTTON"].state == "PRESSED" %}
do something...
{% else %}
do something else...
{% endif %}
