Is there existing pangoscript to simulate the Color slider?

[turbobonus-5]

Is there a pangoscript that can generate the RGB values starting at red going through back to red again in the same way the Color slider does in the live control window? I've set up 3 colour channels and I want to assign a single slider or knob to each one, that slider will have the same effect as the Color slider in that it will sweep through all the colours and send the relevant RGB values to the channel.
The only way I can see to do this at the moment is using the 'ColorChannel.0.R/B/G' objects, but I'm only interested in using the colours at full saturation so don't need that level of control.

Is there a script somewhere that can mimick the behaviour of the Color slider so I can cycle through the full colour range at full saturation using a single slider/knob?

eg
@midi level 0x00, R=255,G=0,B=0
@midi level 0x40, R=0,G=255,B=255

This is obviously a workaround to using a touch screen to achieve the same thing

I think that's going to need some clever coding that's way above me, here's a video someone made making a colour picker in Universe and here is something about clever RGB javascript code that could be useful if you're a coder. I just use a stream deck to pick colours on 4 channels, white, red, yellow, orange, green, cyan, blue, magenta and pink. If I wanted fine control, I'd just use another midi surface and map RGB to individual sliders.

Thanks for the reply, never heard of those StreamDeck things, they look pretty cool. I think I'll do the same but using either my APC40 or a universe page on an iPad. Have used something called Splashtop previously which enables an iPad to be used as a touchscreen monitor when attached to a Windows machine.

The best way to use a stream deck is to use software called Bitfocus Companion (it’s free) - not Elgato’s software, it’s extremely flexible and doesn’t actually need you to have a stream deck to use it, it’s got a built in emulator to use on say a second touch monitor. It’s also got a web interface so you can put your iPad and pangolin machine on the same network and use a browser on your iPad to connect and use. I’ll say though, I found it laggy over Wi-if. If your iPad has usb-c, you could use a dongle and network cable to speed things up. But still, it’s a touch screen. The beauty of the stream deck is fully customisable physical buttons.

I’m happy to help you out with companion, getting it connected to beyond etc.
