Yes you could of course do all of those things.
I was just thinking of a quick way of outputting a test pattern for fault finding purposes, that didnt require turning off DMX to a layer or interupting a programmer if an engineer is trying to find a fault during a plotting session/rehersal etc.

Turning DMX off on a layer is fine if that layer is only going to the output that has a fault on it, but not if its routed to several mixes going out of different outputs

taking the output to desktop doesnt work if you're using a TH2Go as you send all three outputs to desktop.

changing the BG colour -hadn't thought of this, yes that would be the best solution at the moment, but it does require you to remember what colour it needs to return to (ok it normally gonning to be either black or transparent)
but I think a button to enable and disable a test pattern would be a better.
