Has anyone noticed that you can't enter text labels for radio buttons having a number of 9 or greater? They'll get the same text you entered for button #8. This is assuming you selected "Set by Word Tags " in order to get more than 8 buttons. The only way I could work around this was to set the text color to the same as the background color and overlay the radio buttons with static text. Are there any other solutions?

At first the bug appears to only be in the Radio Button setup dialog box. As you increase the number of buttons, the default text that gets displayed in the Text Setting panel of the setup dialog box for all buttons 9 and above is "Off #8 " and "On #8 ". However, the actual control on the HMI screen shows "Off #9 ", "On#9 ", etc. as you'd expect.
However, if you enter anything else for the text for buttons 9 and above it doesn't stick. The text on the HMI screen remains as "Off #9 ", "Off #10 ", etc.
Definitely a bug. I'm using version 2.42 which is latest C-More software. I 've reported other bugs as well (see my other posts if you 're interested) and am hopeful they will get fixed in next release. It's been a while...
