Thanks for the tip. The only app I knew about was Garden Hue and it didn't work the way I wanted it to. It had been awhile since I last looked so I searched "color" on HPM and still only come up with garden hue.
I was doing everything in RM but it was very cumbersome. Moving the actual color cycling to Color Animations simplified things considerably. I could move everything to webcore, I used it to do this when I was on ST, but really don't feel like going through the webcore learning curve again. I guess I am getting lazy.
Having the lights turn off as soon as the connector turns off just seems like something that should logically happen.
