Can the Switch component number of options be overridden to have more than 12? Can I do it in the ffxml file as a text edit?

Will try?

Thanks,

no, not without programming. however, you can chain them together. take one as your main switch and plug 12 others into it. you now have 144 nodes. just stick a switch control on the main and secondaries to select which node is active.

Thanks. As suspected, changing the ffxml file didn't work.

I will see how I can cascade them.

How can I use one control (slider) to drive all of them?

use one control for the main switch and then just one more and plug that 2nd one into every one of the other 12 (assuming you want 12 more). so, you switch the main switch and that picks one of the other switches. the 2nd switch will then move to that switch position on every one of the other switches, but only the one will pass through to the main switch.

so, it takes two switches to drive the whole thing. cant be done with just one and still have 144 nodes available.

Craig,

Thanks.

What I'm trying to do I'd prefer the user have only one control to fiddle with. I'll have to go back to FilterMeister for this one I guess.
