The switch node allows you to switch the output depending on the input stream.

I have found there is an "If all else" which is used if none of the parameters are met.

But the situation has now arisen that I want a message to be sent to ALL outputs.

Is that possible?

Stupid me.

Didn't think of that.

I just make an extra condition.

Thanks.
