Autonomous Selector Question

Hello,

R7 says:

<R7> Certain non-VEX components are allowed. Robots are allowed the following additional “non-VEX” components: a. Any material strictly used as a color filter or a color marker for a legal sensor, such as the VEX Light Sensor or the VEX V5 Vision Sensor

Are we allowed to have a thing like in the attached pictures where each color (drawn with marker either on paper or directly onto metal) is a different autonomous program? Also, the ‘New Answers’ button on the Q&A says that there is 1 new answer, but when I click it, it says “There are no questions.” Maybe you forgot to click something?

Provided the device you've described and depicted is used solely as a color marker for a legal sensor as described in rule <R7> and has no other functional use on the Robot (does not come into contact with Triballs, field elements, etc.), it would be legal.
