I think the answer is reflected in the subject title, but I thought I would run this past the experts.

I am using the Macro button on my Pronto tsu 100 as a global lights (X-10) button. The macro group has one macro which is the lights panel of this "macro".

I also have a series of timers for recording radio programs to the audio track of my VCR. This is set up as a hidden panel on the the same macro group. In normal use it is never seen when one uses the global lights button.

However, if I go to this hidden panel via a jump from home and edit the timer and then forget to first go to the lights panel, the next time the macro button is used to go to lights it instead returns to the last panel accessed which would be the hidden timers panel.

Now the obvious way out of this would be to assign a global lights button to each device panel, but for reasons of real estate I don't want to do this.

If I could automatically jump after timer edit/modification to the lights panel (which you can't) that would be acceptable.

OR

Is there some way to make the timers panel really hidden so that the macro button would not revert to it after the timers panel is accessed?

Thanks

On each of the devices, are you using the low left and right hard buttons? If not then they can be used as a global light button.
Other than that, you sol. Unless you would want to put the lights on a home panel.
Did you put the lights on the macro side, so that you can have a "back" button. When the user is done turn the lights on/off/dim. They could hit the device side so that they will return to the last panel that they were on?
Because if they were in the home panel, It would of course do the same thing. To make it look better, you can have the light panel hidden on the home page.
Just a suggestion though.

Thanks for looking into this.

The hard buttons are already used on the device side. I will look again at the real estate on each of the device panels and see if I can't free up some space for a new button. This seems the only easy way out.
