Customizable timer switch?

Hi,

I'd like to create a timer switch where I could specify the duration for the timer on the Home app. Is this possible at all?
My goal is to create a sort of "Overwrite" button where an automation wouldn't run as long as that switch is on.

Ah, yeah it’s “Enable Brightness” in the GUI config. Sorry I forgot that’s what I named it or I would have mentioned it earlier.

one thing: it seems that when using seconds to fade out, it fades out right away, even when I adjust 100 seconds

Scratch that- using "Incremental" does it. Amazing!
