Good evening.
In my new build I've installed dimmers (some HS, many Jasco) and the most important person to please in the house would rather have the switches operate w/out local dimming capabilities (not a bad thing IMHO really) so I've configured all of them as following:

which is doing a great job if you just click the top button or click the bottom button. However... it seems as if people just can't seem to help but hold the button down when turning off the lights which results in a Dim = 1% status:


And when someone goes to turn it back on they have to click it off and then back on to get it back to responding in a "normal" fashion. Is there a setting at the switch level or global script that I can put into place that will make this behavior go away and, on the local level, just let these switches either be on or off?
The obvious thing is that, hindsight being 20/20, I should have not purchased dimmers and just switches .. but if I could read minds I probably would have someone else doing this post for me from my luxury villa in the Maldives
Also -- For the Ramp Rate for local commands it seems that the lowest parameter I can get to stick is 3 for the timer. I'm not sure if this is related but it seems to not matter the type of switch, etc.
Thanks in advance. I'm loving getting up and running with HS.... I'm an ex Smartthings user and the reliability alone is mind boggling when compared with that platform not to mention how great it is to be able to control and program the switches directly.
