To do it in a more widget-ish way, you should set a timer event. See the TIMER keyword of WIDGET_CONTROL. You can set a timer event to happen after 1 second, and when you receive the timeout event, transition to the next image. That way, your widget application is always ready for any kind of event, including a button click. I'm just giving you the bare bones description of what to do. Actually setting up will take some effort. (for example to disable some buttons of your interface while in auto-slideshow mode)
