Hi Graham - I can't answer this in detail, but I have used the native
switchbutton widget, a bit, without seeing any problem of the kind you
describe. I'm catching the hiliteChanged message in the widget itself, not in
the card script, for what that's worth.
(By the way, it scales - it's just that the default size is probably a bit
excessive.)

To add to my query below, there’s something even more strange. In my beta app
there is a card with three Native Switch Buttons on it (they all have different
names). i have another test card, as described before, with its own switch.
When a button script on yet another card executes a ‘go' to the 3-switch card,
the hiliteChanged handler in the test card fires, even though the card isn’t
open! Again, the switch on this card has a different name - I read somewhere
that widget names have to be unique - but this CAN’T be expected behaviour, can
it? I am about to issue a bug report, but it may take too long to get a recipe.

Is anyone using the Native Switch Button? It looks OK (a bit big on my iOS
simulator, but it will do) and it works - although the insanity of spelling
“highlight” two ways in the one object is apparent - but running an experiment
just now in which I go to a card with such an on object on it and not much
else, certainly nothing in the card script, a ‘hiliteChanged’ event is
triggered even though AFAIKS the highlight (see what I did there?) hasn’t
changed.
Is this expected behaviour? I can’t really believe it, but as usual I can’t see
what i’m doing wrong. I certainly don’t want the message to be triggered unless
the user touches the screen or I deliberately change the state by script.
