    Hello,
    My Mirror is almost ready but i’m stuck with a this issue: is there a way to control MMM-carousel with buttons?
    All I want to do is by pressing a short press on the switch it will move to the next slide and pressing a long press it will move to the previous slide.
    If some one can point me to the right direction it will be amazing.
    Thanks!

        thank you! I read it before I posted and as the last comment said, it doesn’t work…
        Not sure what I’m doing wrong.

          Which version of MMM-Carousel are you using? If you use this one: MMM-Carousel w/ Slide Navigation you can navigate left and right or jump to a particular slide by sending a notification from another module.

          Just pushed an update to make this even easier. See the details at the bottom of the README

            @shbatm cool! Now that I run MM from a Synology Docker I’ve lost my Voice navigation options with pages…but this might be cool to try and install some buttons!

                    @shbatm thank you so much! It worked perfectly! Unfortunately I had to have a cancer prostate removal operation on Friday (which I’m recovering of now) but my mirror works exactly like I wanted with two buttons that control the “mirror mode”. First press is like the Samsung family hub, second press is my home assistant dashboard, third press is an art work slideshow with 49 beautiful artworks and forth press is just a clear mirror with time and compliments only. On to of that I’ve implemented the GassistPi voice operation and the PIR module.
                    I’m so happy!!! Thank you so much!
