Radiobutton sending true/false

[Pedder007]

What nervs ;-) Hi all, I'm using something like 1-2 years now VIS and I see it as a really great thing to easily set up a very convenient GUIs for my whole familiy, but: As here all find, that the radiobuttons are the most practical buttons of all (clearly switching its coloring, highlighting if 'Aus' or 'An' is active), I'm always struggeling with the fact that there is no respective Radiobutton button which is able to send a real boolean true/false. Having true/false in a value list radiobutton, always generates errors in the log, as then a string is send.

Workaround also nervs ;-) To get this currently worked around, I'm always using two of the 'ctrl Icon State / val - Icon Bool' buttons, placed right beside each other. But this really is cumbersome and also the coloring of the buttons does not change like with the radiobuttons.

What is my whish Please program a respective real Boolean Radiobutton as e. g. using the Bulb (which sends a real true/false), is not applicable for e. g. switching a pool pump.

What is no solution (for me) Yes sure, Materialdesign has this 'Bool - switch', but I don't like it and I also like more the general design of the jqui buttons colored by the Thema 'start' ;-)

edit: What just additionally came up in my mind Maybe it could be an opportunity, to enhance the normal 'on/off Radiobutton' by a function to select if he should send '0/1' or 'false/true'. This option is available in the respective 'Material Design' buttons.

Hi again, it's is already a while ago, as I posted the explained issue, maybe it is not an issue but an enhancement? However, as I'm currently again struggeling with respective Philips Smart+ Plug, I would like to ask again on this. Using the other VIS jqui buttons always causes a warning like this:

The only VIS basic item to switch the button without an issue, is the 'Bulb on/off' while toggeling the datapoint 'on' of the switch. But a bulb (as an icon) doesn't really fit to a plug ... ;-)
