I've got a patch that's set up so that if I press a button on my launchpad it will assign a cell on an 8x8 matrixctrl. I want to be able to toggle ther cells using the launchpad buttons, so I've set up a checking system that uses getrow to create a list of what is on and what is off, and then use if statements to create binary switches that'll turn a cell on or off depending on its current state

The problem is that if I press one button and then press the one next to it the if statements don't update straight away, so I have to press the button twice.

you had a catch 22 situation where you need access the info before you know what it is. study the trigger object to carefully assign the correct message ordering that is needed: I made a different approach where you use == and zl mth instead of trying to switch according to not-yet-known status...

Thanks so much! I've only been using Max about a week so I'm not familiar with most of the elements yet. This helps a lot, I can begin tidying up the other parts of this project now =]
