I don't use CW_BGROUP, so I can't really help you with
how that works, but I think most of your problem lies
in this part of your code:

> CASE Ev OF
> 'onoff': BEGIN
> draw.onoffpanel= event.value

That last statement is effectively turning
all of your buttons ON or all of your buttons OFF,
based on the value from a single button. The problem
you have is that you don't know which button that
was.


IDL> draw = {onoffpanel: fltarr(4) }
IDL> print, draw.onoffpanel
0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000
IDL> draw.onoffpanel = 1
IDL> print, draw.onoffpanel
1.00000 1.00000 1.00000 1.00000

You probably want to know which button was selected,
so you can change the proper value in your onoffpanel
field. Maybe something like this:

Widget_Control, event.id, Get_Value=buttonValue
CASE buttonValue OF
'Sat1': draw.onoffpanel[0] = event.value
'Sat2': draw.onoffpanel[1] = event.value
'Sat3': draw.onoffpanel[2] = event.value
'Sat4': draw.onoffpanel[3] = event.value
ENDCASE

Cheers,

David
