When I use an normal event for this UltraLighting3 light I get a drop down that lets me pick an item called status which now gives me a drop down that let's me pick on or off.. Yet when I use Easy Trigger toggle it does not let me pick the drop down that has status , brightness, etc,,, thus I am not able to pick on and off for the a/b toggle setting the a / b / c dropdowns are blank... Help......

HS3 or HS4?
In HS4 native event you select a device (root) and then an associated feature (child device), but in HS3 root devices and child devices where treated the same, so in EasyTrigger you have to select the "child device" (status, brightness, etc) as the device you want to toggle
If you can' t figure it out, please post screenshots

Small Note: this is a Lifx Lamp it does have a root that doesn't show in the snip,, it must keep adding it back as a LIFX root device.. That said I don't think the root does anything I can check if toy want , yet the 4 pictures should give you the idea,, as shown it's the same device in all snips..
TIA

dem5867 , as I said in the EasyTrigger toggle action you need to directly select the feature (child device) which I guess in your case is "1st Floor Living Room Status"
The problem is that with HS4 plugins the feature names no longer include the device name, so EasyTrigger shows it as "1st Floor Living Room Status" instead of "1st Floor Living Room Small Table Lamp Status"

At least Under Ultra's PI the bulb creates two devices, the root and a bulb the bulb device controls the bulb,, yet when used in a event the root is only shown and that's how on get to the bulb and it's features..
Having the toggle feature will pay for this great PI many times over,, I should have purchased it a long time ago..
The only bummer for me is that I'm trying to interface it to a Z-wave button and it appears only to able to send scenes 1000 for 1 push 1003 for two on get the idea, I'm thinking it's time to head over to the Z-wave group and learn about associations, it sends on/off to assocation 2 !!
Thanks
