Hi Yokosuna
in the Qlight+ Virtual Consol there is two kinds of "button"
1- If you insert many "Virtual Console Button" in a "Normal frame" you can activate many button a the same time
2- If you insert many "Virtual Console Button" in a "solo frame" you only activate the button you push and all other buttons in these soloframe are off
3- If you insert "Virtual Console Button Matrix" at the bottom of the window creation you have choice for Normal button ( refer to line 1) or solo button (refer to line 2)
be careful it''s not possible to change a "Virtual Console Button Matrix" it's not possible to add a new line of button or a new row
I hope it's help you
Regards
"

Right, it is not possible to change the number of columns/rows using the add matrix dialog,
but I expect it is possible to add individual buttons by enlarging the frame and adding buttons one by one.

It is possible to add extra buttons.
A matrix is a 'normal' frame with the buttons added, But only the option 'Show Enable Button' activated.
Just call up the Frame Properties (double click on frame) and tick 'Accept Child Widgets'
and 'Allow Resizing'
You could add the matrix to a new frame, and add further matrix(es) to that.
Each matrix would be in it's own frame, all in the 'master frame.

Thank you for the replies, but solo frame is NOT the solution.
RADIOBUTTONS should not act like buttons in a solo frame.
They should not be able to be turned off by accident when you
click it twice or hit an external midi controll by accident.

OK, then please explain why you need a radio button behavior, someone may be able to give you another solution.

By Radiobutton, I assume you mean a button that can only be turned off by pressing another button;
or several buttons linked, such that pressing one button deactivates the other linked buttons.
Try looking at loopback. (I'm still working on this myself).
Each button in it's own frame. One buton per frame. All thes frames in a solo frame maybe.
Used with a collection,the collection will have the required scene, plus loopback(s) to disable the activated frame, and enable all other frames.
Not sure how to do this exactly, but it seems a possibility.
