Quote from Defran on December 22, 2023, 2:17 pmWould it be possible to optionally configure by Properties that Switch Dip works as a multi-position switch so that pressing a new position disconnects the previous one?

Indeed that is the solution for a "commutator" switch requested a few times.

Yes, something like that is planned:
It will be a button widget, then you can "link" it to other components that have buttons (switches, sources,etc).
Similar to the Dial widget that you can "link" to other dials in the circuit (potentiometer, sensors,etc).

Currently switches have a resistance of 1 mΩ, but it would be possible to add a property to configure it.

Quote from Alex68 on December 22, 2023, 3:55 pmI meant closed contacts. They are less than 1 ohm. This is necessary if you pass a large current through these contacts, for example from incandescent lamps. Adjusting the resistance of these contacts would simulate real contacts. Including the relay.

That's exactly what I said: switches have a resistance of 1 mΩ

Quote from arcachofo on January 4, 2024, 9:25 pmIt woks fine, thanks.
Nice.
I added a "Common Pin" property to be used with a common source like in your picture.
Also made it "linkable" and made Dial steps configurable.
SO now with a dial you can control several switches.
Also changed the color a bit to differentiate from led bar:
