Most of my songs have lots of CUE positions, and as the song progresses, I need to know which cue number it has passed.
I would like to have my midi controller LED turn on based on the last known cue position of the song. Looks like there is a script command called "getlastcue" but I do not know how to use it for this example.

cue 1 led - var 'WD_LPC' 1 ? on : off
cue 2 led - var 'WD_LPC' 2 ? on : off
cue 3 led - var 'WD_LPC' 3 ? on : off
cue 4 led - var 'WD_LPC' 4 ? on : off

this would be better though... it will turn the light on if the hot cue is set, but blink if that cue was the one last past, if neither are true the led will be off.
cue 1 led - var 'WD_LPC' 1 ? blink 400ms : hot_cue 1 ? on : off
cue 2 led - var 'WD_LPC' 2 ? blink 400ms : hot_cue 2 ? on : off
cue 3 led - var 'WD_LPC' 3 ? blink 400ms : hot_cue 3 ? on : off
cue 4 led - var 'WD_LPC' 4 ? blink 400ms : hot_cue 4 ? on : off
cue 1 led - var 'WD_LPC' 1 ? blink 400ms : hot_cue 1 ? on : off
cue 2 led - var 'WD_LPC' 2 ? blink 400ms : hot_cue 2 ? on : off
cue 3 led - var 'WD_LPC' 3 ? blink 400ms : hot_cue 3 ? on : off
cue 4 led - var 'WD_LPC' 4 ? blink 400ms : hot_cue 4 ? on : off

I need the plug in to do this? Rather, since the plugiin doesn't support it yet, then I cannot accomplish this at this moment?

I think this will "half-solve" my problem. I'm using VDJ as a morph between VDJ and Ableton. With 99 decks, I'm loading decks with loops, synths, vocals, etc, which all have specific cues that I like to use to build songs on the fly. It works great actaully, I just get lost without more information.
I wish there was a way to display the cue# under the cue sprite by editing the skin as well. I looked all over and found a way to use a textzone to display cue #s, but to line them up with the cue sprites is impossible...
