I am looking for a solution to what should be a common and simple problem. I have a slider to control time, but I also want to use a SetterBar to pick out some interesting dates. The bare bones of my current attempt is: Block[{someData}, Manipulate[ ListLinePlot[someData[[tinx,2;;]]], {{tinx,1,"Time"},1,25,1}, {{qt,7,"Special"},{7->"Rising",5->"Smile",20->"Saws",12- >"Falling"},ControlType->SetterBar}, Pane[Text@Dynamic[tinx]], ControlPlacement->Top, Initialization:>( someData=Table[Sin[i j]*Cos[j]//N,{i,25},{j,12}]; tinx=1) ] ] Ideally, none of the setter buttons would be selected if the time was not one of the special ones. Clicking on one of the setter buttons would set the time to that value. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
