It is a matter of the priorities of buttons. Let me deal with P64 LEDs because I am familiar with them. And although their are multiple solutions to doing overrides/accent I will present one solution and based on your response, I will offer other methods until I understand what exactly you are trying to do, and until we get the result you are looking for.
I have P64 LEDs in my wash. I can control them from my wing console and can manually mix colours myself, however in my patching to my wing console I have the patches set to "Software has Priority". If I have a wash up in a colour mix I have a buttons in Live that override the wash to pick out individual performers in NC. These buttons are on a separate Live page and keyboard triggered. So to bring up performer 2 I hit "u" with is the trigger I assigned it. The selected pars programmed to that trigger override those colour mixed pars in my wash. In fact that trigger will override any specific programming for my wash from another page. (Unless you change scenes from the other page, remember it is LTP, Last Takes Priority).
So when I release the trigger, the scene or wing console resumes control.
Alternately if you have an override accent/flash on the same Live page set to Solo buttons? You can make it a flash button of the scene created overriding any possible conflicts and producing the look you want?
Feel free to ask if you need more clarifications, and I'll be happy to help.
