Can a button cycle through playlists or just presets? [https://kno.wled.ge/features/macros/](https://kno.wled.ge/features/macros/) Is a little unclear to me. ---

They’re all the same thing, you just refer to the number of the playlist/preset and it’s internal definition tells WLED how to process the contents. Or to put it another way, a preset is just a simplified playlist of only 1 item with default transition info. A playlist is the more general version of “n” presets listed in order with defined transitions. You’ll note you can’t have a preset #7 _ **AND** _ a playlist #7 (or any other number). ---

Is there an example available for a button to cycle through playlists? I have a button that when I long press, would like to cycle through playlists 100-105. I created a preset with API Command: P1=100&P2=105&PL=~ and assigned it in the macros section. When I select the preset or press the button, it selects Playlist 100, but when press again will not cycle to Playlist 101. It just keeps selecting Playlist 100. ---

This was the bug that chatted about in discord and that I submitted to MM. It still exists in the xx27.31 release, but has been fixed in their dev builds. Thank for your help on this one!
