Thank you very much. I have some of what you described already in place, but i like the ideas you provided!

I just had my control4 lighting system installed and my dealer set me up with home composer as I like to tinker and change things up. 
 
I finished programming all my keypads (30 of them) so they do the main action I want (turn on a light, turn on tv, turn on a scene).  The problem is that whenever a button is pushed , the led color won’t change. Or if I push family room light on in one area (or it’s part of a scene), I’d like every keypad button with family room light on to show up as a certain color. 
 
I was told that I have to physically program each light (family room on) to every keypad button that has family room , and choose the set color for it. Same goes for off. This will be very time consuming and if I want to change the color or reprogram the keypads, it will be off.  There has to be a more efficient way to handle this. 
 
as another question , I have a button (keypad button 1) that turns stairs and hallway on. It would be nice that the button would change to a LED ON color automatically if those two lights are ever on together. Meaning I go to other keypads and I hit those two lights so both are on. The idea is that whenever that possible combo is on (doesn’t matter how) then button that contains those lights will show as on (anything with stairs will be on, anything with hallway will be on, and anything with just stairs & hallway will be on).
I saw something called LED wizard in previous posts but will read up on it  
i did see that a dealer could bind the lights for me which supposedly will handle the 1st part of the question for me , but is there a way for me to unbind it without going to back to them? I’d prefer to handle all the programming stuff on my own and  not have them do the binding 
thanks again for the advice !
 
 
 

I finally had my control4 installed and starting to go through the programming of all my keypads. I'm just learning how to do everything, but right now trying to make it somewhat functional before getting more advanced.  When controlling the lights, my installer showed me how to program lights to the button via a "pressed" or single tap. I was told that pressed will give that near instantaneous reaction, but the single tap has the slight delay. That is because the system is waiting to see if any additional taps will be coming.  While I can most likely get away with most of my buttons being "Pressed", having some buttons being able to be double / triple tapped would be very nice. The delay however will quickly annoy me and most likely discourage me from using that functionality.
 
My questions is: Is there a way to shorten the delay on the Single Tap / Double Tap? I already have the delay set to 0 milliseconds
