 Control Page navigation
I'm curious if there is a simple way to construct a series of related control pages among which you can navigate, without having each one show on the list of control pages.
In other words, lets say I have 4 images of a particular room corresponding to facing each wall. I would like to be able to navigate among them either with a button or by flicking the image one way or the other, but I don't want my list of control pages to show each one.
So I'd pick kitchen, for example, and that would start at one point (ideally with the last one I visited before, but I've seen that requested as an enhancement I think), and then I could move within the kitchen to the other 3 images.
Can I do that? How?

If I got ya right, I think you can do it via a button. Takes up precious screen real estate, but it might work.

I'm mostly concerned with being able to navigate to them without having them appear in the control page list.

Uncheck the "Remote Display" checkbox in the control page list.

Sounds like you were after something like I was
where the 4 room walls are on 1 control page
that can be scrolled around in to see everything.
I just made a panorama image showing the room
in 360 degrees that ended up being about 320 x 1400
pixels. When I shot the images I did one with the lights
both on and off so I could insert them on the background
as buttons.

Yeah-- that's what I've now done. I am compulsive enough that I shot each light in 20% increments of brightness.... It does look pretty cool though. I've got it set up so if you press on one side of the light it brightens and the other it dims....

Yikes Kenny, I think you need to learn Photoshop.
Much easier to dim lights that way from one "on" image.
Love your idea about using each side of the light to brighten or dim.

Been using Photoshop since V1....
The reason for shooting the different images is to get the effects of the reflective and ambient light from each different lamp as it brightens against the background with no other lamps on. Some are chandeliers, some are floor lamps, some desk lamps, track lights, down spots, etc. Some barely visible around corners, etc. Each one casts a different lighting effect and has a different halo, reflective pattern. I wanted to capture that.
In fact all shots were taken on a tripod, and I saved the selection of each lamp and simply loaded it in each subsequent shot so all of the images for a "button" used the same selection area. Actually I defined each selection so as to be sure to include all of the reflected and ambient light from each lamp so when several are on it really looks like the combination of those lights in real life.
IMHO simply using Photoshop to make several images which scootch up the intensity of a light would not look like a real life environment and would not reproduce the real lighting pattern from each bulb....
