So what i mean is kind of like a dog leash where you can pull it out and click the button in to stop it then when you release the button it gets pulled back in. I need something like this for a project I am working on but I dont want the the button. I want it to be pulled out to a specific length then when I want it back in the container I just give it a tug a few inches past that point.

$\begingroup$ Look at the coiling mechanism on most vacuum cleaners with retractable cords. Its also the same mechanism you will find in pull down protector screen, and some wind screens. $\endgroup$– Forward EdCommented Nov 15 at 5:17

Look at venetian blind mechanism for raising and lowering the blind.
