Hi everyone, I am a newb to the teensy and am building my first teensy based project which is a simple button box for a PC. I have gotten the teensy loaded with the Keyboard/mouse/joystick sketch and managed to add a few more buttons by addind new iterations to each block of code in the sketch. But I am now trying to figure out how I can use toggle switches that are non-momentary to send momentary signals. Is there a way to do this in code rather than using hardware relays? I basically just want to have a few dpdt on-on-on switches to control a flight sim which expects a momentary. Any help would be much appreciated. Here is the code I am currently using:

#include <Bounce.h>
// Create Bounce objects for each button. The Bounce object
// automatically deals with contact chatter or "bounce", and
// it makes detecting changes very simple.
Bounce button0 = Bounce(0, 10);
Bounce button1 = Bounce(1, 10); // 10 = 10 ms debounce time
Bounce button2 = Bounce(2, 10); // which is appropriate for
Bounce button3 = Bounce(3, 10); // most mechanical pushbuttons
