I am new to WLED. If this question was asked before, i apologize in advance. 🙂

Wiring a LED matrix and connect it to my ESP32 i made a nice digital clock with changing background effects. I set up serveral presets and made a playlist to cycle thru them infinitely.

Everything worked smoothly, but i felt at times i want to switch the display off, so i added a pushbutton and made a preset/macro to toggle the display (win&T=2). That also works like a brezze, BUT once the pushbutton is pressed, it interrupts the playlist and doesn’t get back to cycle thru the playlist.

Did i configure something wrong or is there a trick to jump from the playlist to the toggle-macro, toggle the display and get back to the playlist where it was left? Like saving the current playlist position on a stack and load it again when the macro is finished.
