Not sure what's causing this, probably something I'm not doing right.
When I load my controller on my pad to play my game, multiple macros are sent to the game as soon as it loads even though I haven't pressed anything yet.
It seems to be related to the multi-switch element. Am I missing something? It doesn't seem like the correct behavior, sending a macro on load before anything is pressed.

Also, the multi-switches are all set to "as button press" and not "toggle group"... not even sure what the difference is.

that's indeed the behaviour of a multiswitch button, since when you open a screen the multiswitch is in one position it should activate that position. "as button press" stand for each position only trigger the "pressed tigger" of the active position. As for "toggle group" it will trigger the "Released trigger" of the previous position and trigger the "pressed trigger" of the active position. I strongly recommend to right click on the multiswitch position and then select "edit parameters" to see the modification

Ok. That's not what I hoped to hear. I use this for Elite Dangerous and there are many ship commands that toggle on and off with the same keystrokes. I was hoping to use the multi-switch so I could use on/off images to know when something is on/off. But, since it sends the commands as soon as I load my LEA interface on my tablet, it is automatically triggering ship commands, and also starting the record and broadcast functions in the nVidia game overlay. Since I want to have graphic buttons that show me when something is on or off, is there another button type I can use that DOESN'T send macro commands as soon as I load the interface on my tablet? Just seems like odd behavior to have it trigger as soon as the thing loads. But, that's just me. Or is there a way for me to use the multi-switch to do what I am trying to do? Setup a third position and have the first one do nothing? Or something else? Thanks for all your help and hard work. This is such a great tool!

So, using the multiswitch button, what I did was create 3 positions. The first position does nothing and uses the "off" image... the 2nd position sends the macro and uses the "on" image, and the 3rd position uses the "off" image and sends the macro. This works almost perfectly. I just have to tap twice after the 3rd position to turn it back on, which is not a big deal at all. This program is so cool. I started building a "remote control" for the VLC Media Player last night.

As far as I have seen it can only follow the linear path... position 0, position 1, position 3... etc... looping back to position 0 at the end. I don't think you can point a position to another position like that, but that would be cool, wouldn't it? Open up some really interesting possibilities.

Looks like a solution may be coming in the next update. leaextendedinput.freeforums.net/post/196/thread
