live.object: Changes cannot be triggered by notifications, from mouse click

Hi,

I'm getting the

live.object: Changes cannot be triggered by notifications

error, when I use the patch below to change a device parameter in M4L: a toggle object is used to control the change, so there are no notifications involved at all (to my understanding). This occurs frequenty--perhaps one in twenty clicks--but not all the time. I am using a deferlow object, as suggested by the docs, even though it should only be necessary when a notification is triggering the change.

Has anyone any ideas why I'm getting this error?

Thanks,

In my experience that error message may also appear in situations not strictly related to notifications.
So it would be helpful if you provide some more context, ie. a complete reproducible example.

I'd be happy to--do you mean a complete Live set too? That's surely the only way an example could be complete...?

Ideally you would attach a Live set (zip) reduced to relevant devices with instructions for reproducing the issue.
The zip file should also contain all used non-factory components, in particular M4L devices.

Now that I attempt to do so, I'm afraid I cannot reproduce this error in another live set. Since I can't upload the set in which I saw the problem initially, I'll have to abandon this enquiry for now (I worked around the issue by using live.remote~ in the other set).
