I'm a newbie to the Pronto Pro and have been poking around the default configuration files as well as the .XCFs that have been uploaded to the site. I know that there are a lot of great programmers out there and everyone does things a little bit differently - but I was wondering if people had some specific advice on organizing devices/components/screens/etc. in PEP to make initial and ongoing development quicker and easier. If you have some tips that you could share it would be greatly appreciated....Thanks in advance.

PEP is virutally identical to PPENG/PENG in so far as programming goes. As such, I'd recommend doing some forum searches on programming in PPENG/PENG as you'll find much more in the way of forum posts regarding these editors and how people are using them.

Put all IR codes for one device on buttons on a hidden page. Then, link all your GUI buttons to those buttons on the hidden page. This allows you to swap out equipment at a later time without having to dig through your config looking for IR codes that you will have to change.

I am also a new user, had the remote for a few months now. Recently I have been off on vacation and well spending the time learning and programming the remote (before you ask the wifes working :-) ), anyway just wanted too give Dave a plug here.

I purchased his "The Ultimate Pronto Guide" and although it was developed for a previous remote its still applicable and well worth the cost. It provides some great ideas for structure and device page development (read Best Practices), as well it got me off the ground and running in my first attempt at a programable remote, I think this could be addicitve.
