Bill,
I've had my Leopard set up for about a month and have some simple on/off
lighting screens drawn up, however, I'm unable to think of a way to incorporate
dimming into the screens. Right now it's set up with a button w/ a descriptive
caption, simple on/off functionality. I just can't figure out how to make it
dim/brite with out having 3 buttons per light... on/off - dim - brite.
I'm sure there must be a way I just can't see it yet.
BTW the Leopard is great, being able to sit in the easy chair and control the
whole house without worrying about remembering what house code/ unit #
everything is. The wife acceptance has gone way up! Once I get the IR and HVAC
incoporated as well as displaying text (thanks Mark, the check is in the mail)
I'm sure it will get even better!
Tom

OK,
My Leopard is arriving tomorrow - anyone have any pointers to sites with sample
screens/events?
Also, can there be more than one bitmap screen???
Any ways/methods for loading/displaying .bmp objects instead of characters?
(i.e., symbol for stop, play, forward, fast-forward, rewind, etc. as common on
VCR's, CD's, Tape Units, Voice-Mail playback ???)
