All,
If you send a "label" message to an IEM GUI without an argument it doesn't replace the label field in the patch file with "empty" (like it does if you manually clear the label in the GUI properties), but just a blank.
This causes all manner of weirdness by shifting all the GUI's arguments over by one.
I've seen this with the radio buttons and the sliders, I assume it's the same for the rest of them.
See the attached patch, open radiomain.pd and follow the instructions.
Cheers, David
ps. Of course a "label empty" message behaves properly, but I don't think the blank "label" message ought to behave this way.
