I know that this is probably not possible, but I had to ask and even perhaps throw it out as a possible enhancement request since I know some of you guys are actually in contact with Pronto development from time to time. Is there a way to toggle the command set of a particular button so that it's ir command set(or that of another button) changes when pressed? As an example, I have a button on the home page that turns on the tv/cable box and sets the input source, then jumps to the TV screen. From there the power button resets the TV's source, then turns off the TV and cable box. If I press another button on the TV page, it turns on the receiver for surround sound, and changes the source. When that 2nd button is hit, I'd like to change the value of the power button to include the reciever, and change the number of source toggles it goes through at power off. Sort of like: "When hit perform this and change button x to this"....My current work around is to jump to a duplicate frame with the new command structure in the button, however due to the layout of my ccf file (circular get next and previous devices frames) this means I literally have to DOUBLE the number of frames on the pronto. (since you can't jump conditionally, another suggestion!) Because the source button needs to be hit a different # of times at power off to reset the tv to the default settings depending on what was hit, this is necessary. It works fine, but I'd like to streamline the ccf if possible, and remove the redundant clutter. Any additional suggestions? Did that make sense? What the heck am I doing!?!?!?! ;-)Thanks for just getting this far reading it!

Well, you're already doing it the only way possible -- the hard way. There are a number of toggling button variations so far requested; I don't know if any will be implemented.

And again, Thanks for the input. Like I said it works ok, it's just cumbersome. Take it easy...
