        	actions: [
        	{
        	  key: "ArrowRight",
        	  state: "KEY_PRESSED",
        	  instance: "SERVER",
        	  mode: "DEFAULT",
        	},
        	{
        	 key: "ArrowLeft",
        	 state: "KEY_PRESSED",
        	 instance: "SERVER",
        	 mode: "DEFAULT",
        	},

it still doesn’t work and I don’t see what’s wrong (I have to tell you that I control the pi via my windows pc) with vnc

@raf the only thing i can think of is to rename the slides without numbers, you dont need them for the keybindings, it sets it automatically:

"default" = slide0, "slide 2" = slide1 etc…

try renaming the slides maybe "zero" "one" "two" etc…

also check whos version of carousel you have as theres 2! :dizzy_face:

look over this, its how i figured it out!! :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone:

i use vnc from a mac so should be ok!?

@banbutcher

have given the pages a different name, but that is not the solution

banbutcher

Did you see which version on carousel you have?

raf

@banbutcher
carousel version 0.2.6
keyBindings 1.3.1

I have seen at startup it does give a message: (No helper found for module: MMM-Carousel.)
but i don’t know if it is normal and what i can do about it

banbutcher

just checked about the node helper and that comes up on mine too! :)

as for version - i mean whos git repo did you clone from, as you would have read if you read the link i gave you >:( that there are at least 2 versions of carousel. go to the module folder and check the readme file and it will be in there some where…

use the link above and read it! solution should be there!
