There’s no good answer at this time. What you are looking for is a Momentary button, like real buttons typically used for “jog” type operations. Perspective doesn’t have one, largely because there’s currently no good way to ensure the “button” is released reliably. Particular in the case of broken comms.

PF755 and PF525 Jog Button

There will be grief in your life. Perspective doesn't have an out-of-the-box momentary button. You can approximate one with MouseEvents, but you will always be vulnerable to missed events, leaving the button "pressed". Vision does have a Momentary pushbutton, but it too is vulnerable to missed events. There are ways to make the Vision button fairly robust, fortunately, if a bit complicated.
