so i used Tonks graphics for a layout on a RC9200 RF style(yes i paid the $5). everything works absolutely perfect EXCEPT two buttons on a lighting page i've tried to learn them through the computer, learn them through the remote, alias them from the same code on a different page that WORKS and they still don't work. So did i miss something?

what do you mean by "don't work", for the alias did you try and see if the aliased button works? Are you using RF?

Yes its RF; it transmits something , but it's certainly not the code that i put there (I think its the Spacer system "all off" command that it keeps transmitting which is the wrong code.) . And, yes,the aliased button works fine. It's only those two buttons on that page, I've even tried to paste the code directly into the button from the known good code and it still won't work . I tried to erase it and start from scratch, and it doesnt take the code. I don't know what else there is and the funny (not HAHA funny) part is it worked fine for months until we added a couple of devices to the stack and to the remote. Now, it's just being difficult....cause it sucks.... and i'm gonna get a hammer...or something

what devices did you add? could one of them cause RF interference? Is the button on the home page?

No it's on a device page and its aliased to a macro page, but it won't work even if i try to learn it directly to the button on the device page. the macro works too when you run it from the setup on the remote it's just those buttons. The devices i added were a international multi format vcr and dvd player( seperate components) both of which are responding fine to their new programs and everything else works nicely even on that device page all the other Spacer commands respond RF and IR style so i cant imagine whats going on

THEman,

If you want to email me the ccf (address is in my profile) I'll try to troubleshoot it for you later today. Tell me EXACTLY which button and code is the problem. I suspect it's an alias gone bad.

Make sure those buttons aren't embedded in an otherwise unused button, or a frame which has a font size set but no text.
