Is there a way to disable an Input Control Button upon click (click takes an action with a workflow)

Currently, the only way to lock an input control button is to manually set the block’s Mode to Locked in its settings - there isn’t a way to automatically lock it upon button press.

To clarify, do you envision needing to manually unlock the block/button after every button press?

Yes, when an action is taken in the workflow, there is a need to lock/deactivate the button, just like making the button invisible. Basically turn on/off setting
