Using a single button to cycle through sources.

Post by Neilpapworth » Sun May 10, 2015 3:43 pm

Is there a way to use a single button to cycle through 4 sources? I see this as being one button that sends 1 of 4 different command with each subsequent press.

Here's one approach.

1- Define an action for your button that increments a number
2- Define for that number some custom number actions for values 1 to 4, each custom action sending the appropriate command
3- Don't forget for custom action #4 to also set the number to zero

Set the number to: [+]1 in the action editor
