Basically, what we would like for a current project is a way to create a button that you need to keep holding for the robot to move.

Similar to when you use the option "Go to position" in the debugger on the flexpendant. 

We want to use it for the operators to hold the button during certain events so that they can move the robot calm and controlled to home.
We can already trigger this from the normal HMI by setting a signal, but we want this also to be possible from the flexpendant itself.

Hoping to get some good tips of how to do this.

    Hi.
    I assume you are using the Screenmaker in Robotstudio.
    Step 1 Create a button. Select the button.
    Step 2 On the top of the button-propery-panel to the right there is a "spark" or "lightning" icon for events. Press it.
    Step 3 The available events for the button should now appear. onClick, onMouseDown and onMouseUp. 
    Step 4 Choose to SET the signal for "careful movement" onMouseDown and to RESET the signal onMouseUp.
    Step 6 Profit... ;)
