Thanks for explaining the technical challenge. Would it be possible to simply make it red or a different color when it is in the off position? I usually just go right to the player drop down on my ipad before retiring and adjust the alarm time without thinking to look at anything else. I am now in the habit of trying to verify the alarms are in an nailed state but still get caught flat footed every so often. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jmpage2's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
