Where do I set the retain flag? In the hardware section I can't find it.

Publish Topic:
Flat

Select the Topic('s) Domoticz will use to publish outgoing messages.
Flat - publish outgoing messagen on topic {domoticz/out}.
Hierarchical - publish outgoing messagen on topic {domoticz/out}/{$floorplan name}/{$plan name}.
Combined - Use both Flat and Hierarchical topic schemes.
Index - publish outgoing messagen on topic {domoticz/out}/{$idx}. (with or without Retain bit)
Name - publish outgoing messagen on topic {domoticz/out}/{$name}. (with or without Retain bit)
None - disable outgoing messages.

In the Hardware setup, but this is only valid for certain formats (?) :

Publish Topic:
Flat

Select the Topic('s) Domoticz will use to publish outgoing messages.
Flat - publish outgoing messagen on topic {domoticz/out}.
Hierarchical - publish outgoing messagen on topic {domoticz/out}/{$floorplan name}/{$plan name}.
Combined - Use both Flat and Hierarchical topic schemes.
Index - publish outgoing messagen on topic {domoticz/out}/{$idx}. (with or without Retain bit)
Name - publish outgoing messagen on topic {domoticz/out}/{$name}. (with or without Retain bit)
None - disable outgoing messages.

What you reported is what I see in the hardware setup, but where o I set the retain bit?

I'm sorry again...but in those items how do I specify that I need the retain bit?
This is what I see:

P.s. I don't know how I broke the quote here...

When at the right version, you should see in the dropdown list also options that say that the retain bit will be set as well.
