Hi, I am wondering if there is a simple way to duplicate pages? to give you an example, I have 4 machines in the house running xbmc, 3 sky boxes 2 sonos, I have others but these are the ones I am concerned with.

I would like to create a page for each type of device then copy it for each room so that events are sent to the correct machine. I cannot see a simple of way of duplicating the exact layout of a page but having different actions? unless I get very complex with Flags?

thanks

It is common to use subpages for remote controls - one for each source, so that you only have 1 place to enter source commands, and just reference the subpage in multiple places if necessary.

As for duplicating pages, you can click on the page name in the tree view & Control-C(copy) / Control-V (paste), but I would look at using a single page with dependent actions:

Have a place where you select the zone, which sets a zone flag. Then on a 'sky box 1' button, have commands dependent on the particular zone which sets the souce input etc, then set a flag which brings up the subpage (which will happen for each zone, as it is the same source).

Either that, or use subpages for each zone which lets you select the source to keep the buttons 'cleaner' - the 4 Room iPad sample project template in the software does this, there is only 1 page in the software, but each zone has its own source selection subpage, as does each source.
