If I set up three switches with on values of 1,2 and 3 respectively, and then put them in a group and wire them all to a send, I find that I get momentary values when I change from one to the other. If button one is on and then I click button 2, both send their values for a moment so the output is 3 until the first button gets shut off. Whether the off value is zero or null, it doesn't matter.

Is there a way to avoid this behavior? It can be a problem if you are using the value to start something time consuming.... the extra wrong value is not helpful!

I thave used buttons before, but in order to display which one is active, you must load new pngs based on the output value.... I've had problems with files not found doing that, so I'd like to avoid it.

Thoughts?

Thanks as always.

I encountered this as well. There is a latency with group switches and if connected to the same destination will briefly sum values of two switches. I did find a workaround, can't recall definitely but my solution might have been to stop the flow if the value was outside of range of the desired output (or pass only within the desired output range). If this doesn't help, I'll dig and try to find where i used this solution.

to use a list button module is simpler !
