Hi forum,

I am messing around with changing the color of a toggle.

Here's what I want to do:
I want the toggle background color to be updated when I press a certain key on my keyboard. The default color will be white, and when the key is pressed, the toggle will immediately jump to green (in about 5 ms), and then smoothly fade back into white (over about 1000 ms).

So far, I am able to interpolate smoothly between the correct RGB values I need, but the toggle cycles through a bunch of colors first before landing on the correct ones.

Any tips?

@rjp9 Hello there.... the fractions are your problem! A colour value that is not an integer is ignored.. hence the jumping values.........

I lifted the whole [pd rgb] from [toggle-help] as it was easier than making your patch again.... you can simplify it to the example you posted..... fade.pd
