Assuming you're using a custom module, here are two ways of doing it:

  1. edit the session using remote control messages, for example
receive('/EDIT', 'button_id', {on: 42})
  1. put an osc listener in the property : OSC{foo, 40}
    and feed it from the custom module:
receive('/button_address/foo', 42)

Thank you Jean!

Is there any benefit for #2 method? Or is it simply a different approach. Otherwise #1 seems easier to implement and works well for me.

#1 affects the session, changes may be saved (see this thread to avoid the warning when quitting), with #2 the session doesn't change, only the state of the properties.
