 ## Page keys on every page
 
-The **page number key** on every page follows the ALL button. It's green when everything is fine, flashes red when something is wrong, and turns purple if the watchdog stops. UP and DOWN stay normal. Which keys follow ALL is `"nav_keys"` in `config.json` (`["pagenum"]`; add `"pageup"` / `"pagedown"` to colour those too). The coloured key is Companion's own key converted to a regular button (`nav_templates.json`), so a press works exactly as before.

+- **Tap the page number:** go to the start page (page 1), as before. It now acts when you let go, not when you press.
+- **Hold the page number for 1 second:** jump to the status page (page 19). The hold time is `"nav_hold_ms"` in `config.json`.
 
 - `python3 nav_keys.py` applies them to every page. Run it again after adding pages.
 - `python3 nav_keys.py --revert` puts Companion's built-in nav keys back.
