Custome Direct Selects Live

Question

I'm just starting to create my first CDS. I open the window. enter 1 for the first bank, select groups (start, finish, offset etc.) and everything looks great. 
 But when I'm in Live and select say, Group 1 the console goes into Blind mode. I'm missing something here!

I think you're using Tab 39 not only to create and populate your custom direct selects, but also to then use the buttons for your command line interaction. Since Tab 39 is an editor the console brings you back to Blind, as other editors do as well (think magic sheets editor, or macro editor) 
 After you have created the custom direct selects layout in Tab 39 go ahead and close the tab. Open a direct select tab (Tab 4), choose the category Custom and finally select the layout you've prepared. Clicking or touching a direct select button in this tab will write the target into your command line, rather than bringing you to Blind.
