you've been looking at the right place...

do it as a multicommand, and change each individuals command state. for all of them state count should be 6. for the first command set begin state to 1, for the second set it to 2 and so on.
if it doesn't work, save the configuration, exit and restart girder. reset states should probably do the same, but it sometimes didn't do what I expected.

Hello everyone,

I've come across a problem that I haven't been able to find an answer to on the forum. (I may have missed but I searched for quite awhile). What I am looking to do, is change color schemes by using one button on the remote. I have 6 different schemes, that all have a keyboard shortcut associated with them. So I want to be able press the button once, and it goes to Scheme 1, 2nd time I press it, it goes to Scheme 2, and so on until it gets to Scheme 6, in which case I would like it to go to Scheme 1 on the next press.

I've been playing around with it for awhile, the whole 'state' thing confuses me quite a bit. All I've been able to do so far, is add a Multicommand, with 6 commands nested within it, but then when you press it once, it executes every command within it.

I'm open to any ideas and suggestions...

Thank you,
Jeff
