How to configure so that when I turn any button on, it turns any other light off.

Question

I should be able to figure this out, but my brain cells are failing me.

I have a page of buttons that select effects.  I only want one effect to be on at a time.  Currently turning on a button, selects the effect and turns it on, also lighting the MD button.  When I turn it off, the effect goes into bypass, and the button light extinguishes. When I select another effect, it works as explained, but if there was a button already on, it stays lit. I would like the selection of a different effect to also extinguish any MD buttons that are lit.

Functionally it's working fine, but the indicator lights get out of sync.

Any ideas?

Have you seen Button Groups in MD?

I had not been aware of "Button Groups", but it sounds just what the doctor ordered. I see it in the manual, so I'll implement that, thank you.

be aware that you have the option -- either from the supercontrol that creates the button group, of in the individual buttons -- to make the buttons so they don't send their OFF value. This can be useful.

Then... note the bounceback stuff. It's pretty awesome.

Yes, the button group fixed the problem.  Your program constantly amazes me.  It allows me to further tap into my creativity.
