Control appearance of dashboard tile connected to a virtual switch

Just as an adjunct the way you have it set up currently HE updates the dashboard display as soon as you click - but you could immediately send an ...onoff/set command to that device from your process to update the status of the device back to 'off' until it completes and then set 'on' but that's not ideal as it transitions through 'on' back to 'off' then 'on' again

I see. I was trying to keep it in the hourglass until it was told that the command was successful or not. I'll try the "right" VS. :wink:

The way Dashboard tiles work is that they will display "Sending..." until next event is received. With a Virtual device that is almost instant and that event does not come from an external device. To stay at Sending you would have to use something way more custom than a Virtual device, I know of no other way than writing that in a driver or app, don't think it can be done in RM.

Thanks, @markus. That's the definitive I've been looking for.
