3.99y - BasicButton Toggle no longer working
« on: September 12, 2024, 12:24:42 PM »
Sorry for all the questions today.

After changing to 3.99y from 3.99x - by basicButtons that were using the "Toggle" feature have ceased to work.

I tried to remake the buttons - but they still do not seem to toggle the bit in the PLC. I searched for this but didn't find any results. I have trouble imagining this would be broken: is there something new I'm missing?

I'm using MicroLogix.

Update:

SquareIlluminatedButton Does.

Same bit, same settings.

Try this:

thats a cool workaround: though I think the dev might want to be aware of this feature having broken.

There is a bug in the Basic Button component. When setting its type to "Toggle", it doesn't function as expected.

Solution:
The issue is caused by duplicate lines of code in the BasicButton.vb file. Removing one of these duplicate lines will resolve the problem.
