It depends somewhat on what you want to do with that information, how long to remember it, etc. Here’s a patch that keeps an ordered list of what buttons were pressed:

<code>

– Pasted Max Patch, click to expand. –

</code>

The “dot” naming for zl is new w/ Max 6. Change it to “zl join” instead of “zl.join”

Look through the whole zl help file, it’s a really powerful object. Some combination of [zl slice] and [zl rot] should fix you up.

I mean that when I click a TextButton the value joins ON THE RIGHT, not on the left…

Now that I see your example, I might do something like this:

<code>

– Pasted Max Patch, click to expand. –

</code>

(copy-paste that blob into a max patch)

1) Read this about pasting patches.

http://cycling74.com/forums/topic/welcome-to-the-cycling-74-forums-take-a-moment-to-read-these-instructions/

2) The patch I wrote assumed the user would click each of the top buttons once, and only once. That might be wrong — but, I’m not sure what you are after. After turning off ever occurrence of “B”, for example, you want to turn on a different switch at that position? Or, start with four new values?
