I'm sorry for asking, but I took a look at the previous examples that I got. And they told me alot, but lightyears far from all I need to know. So here is my two buttons, can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Sorry for not adding a file. My computer just bluescreened so I had to restart from scratch. Will upload it in a while.

Anyway here it is: http://www.mediashift.net/jobro_sm/Radiobtns.osm

No OSM for you... right!

So... 1) you need to assign the data type to the transmitters or they don't connect to anything.

2) you've used the momuntary switch type... radio buttons are like on-off switches with external controls...

If you do the same steps with the toggle switch you should get it working.

Well first of all I'm trying to learn the hard way. More fun that way. But even then I may need to consult seasoned experts for some of my tasks.

Oh yeah... and the external off wireless has to have a receiver down in the guts of the switch where the mouse event is handled...

Ah thanks alot for the help.

Nifty! I noticed there were 2 copies of the same switch... was one meant to be bool-off/on, & the other a momentary trigger?

Ooops,

be warned i just get a loop-crash as i modified this OSM...

And you use Trigger -> Bool2Trig -> Int...

Jobro is trying to replicate my radio button scheme where sync'd switchs turn off copies of themselves when they go to on.

Yeah that's my goal so I can make preset selection a bit more visible and more nice looking. No offences but I still prefer some nice graphics in front of 2d.

Finally got it working.

My recollection is that the version of my radio buttons I posted allowed you to turn off all the buttons but clicking on the down button -- which isn't how radios are usually supposed to work.

Is this a problem for you? Do you need any help solving it?

Allready solved it. Thanks for the heads up.

Here is how they look now:
