James,
I've spent a lot of time checking this and can't find any bug in 1.0,
which is good news.

Floorplan mimics the DMX channel info within the accuracy of
calculations (if I send
10% and the .event reports 25/255 then floorplan shows 9%, which is fine).

Depending on CPU loading the update can take a few seconds so I guess I
was testing
earlier when it was heavily loaded.

<pre wrap=""><!---->For info, the sending half of
Floorplan is totally separate from the
receiving half. So controlling a device from floorplan will have no
effect on the devices status with the display. Only the receipt of the
.info or .event from the remote device will cause the floorplan device's
status to change.

So for debugging this it would be good to get a copy of the .event
message sent as a result of the Floorplan command and a copy of the
.event sent as a result of the .cmd sent from xapsend
