trigger cue stacks from magic sheet

I had a quick look messing around but haven't tried to delve in to this question too far myself but thought I would throw it out there.

Is there a way to use a magic sheet button to trigger cue stacks (especially when the fader page wasn't currently active)?

Figure you're running a show on an Ion and don't have a fader wing attached, using a magic sheet can you be activating cue stacks along with the main playback? In my head you would assign a cue stack to a fader that isn't the active page, and have a macro linked to the magic sheet button that activates the cue stack.

If this is not currently possible is this something we can look at?

do you want to be able to press Go for these additional cuelists or do you want to click on a button that moves the additional cuelist to the main fader pair and its Go button?

You could certainly have MS buttons that run macros which are the various Go/Stop for faders. This is, however, also available under Virtual Controls with a Virtual Fader Module.

What I was going for was mimicking something like the executor keys on the MA, something that can be used to trigger a cue stack without taking up too much real estate. After messing around in offline it seems to work perfectly fine, assigning a cue stack to to a fader and having a macro trigger the go button.

I was actually surprised that it did work. I was assuming the macro was going to pick up on the go button trigger for the fader itself and not the cue stack attached to the fader, so I figured it would not have worked unless the fader page was open and at the right fader page.
