I think what I essentially need is a way to get [radiogroup] behavior with [matrixctrl] (because the layout of the buttons needs to be horizontal). I need to be sure there is always one cell active-- no more, no less-- and am having a hard time getting both of those things to happen in a reasonable manner. I'm hoping there's an approach I've missed somewhere.

I've just noticed that @clickvalue attribute is not saved for some reason (i'll pass this along), so just make sure you send the message 'clickvalue 1' or go into the inspector and change it there.

Isn't this the same as enabling the "one/row" attribute?

Great Ben, thanks! I hadn't learned about the clickvalue attribute yet. It might be nice if this behavior was a simpler option, kind of the "one per row" option. As far as I can tell, that option doesn't guarantee that a *minimum* of one cell is active, only a maximum.

Ah yes, much easier. Too late at night, missed the obvious Just set the one/matrix or one/row to 1 and the clickvalue to 1.
