Is not posible on SM 3.9 and variants. Try it on SM 5 and variants.

Also, Beware got it to work in 3.9 for his EXTREME simulation. I'll have a look to see if I can find how he did it there and I'll get back to you shortly.
EDIT 1:
Ok so in Beware's metrics for his EXTREME simulation, there is this:
Not sure if this will work in StepMania 5, but I'll try it right now and edit this post if it works.
EDIT 2:
I can't seem to get it to work in SM3.9 or SM5 so it seems it's something that Beware baked into his build. I'll try to see if I can work it out though.
EDIT 3:
Ok, so I've worked it out I think. In SM5 I believe the demonstration screen calls ScreenJukebox.cpp to get its songs. Check out the link here: https://github.com/stepmania/stepmania/blob/30d723d03cc3e2d9d76706bdb259db7da4bc582e/src/ScreenJukebox.cpp
In here lines 37 - 49 say:
So maybe you can either get it to change via a preferred song group or a course that's named the same as the theme name? Not sure if it'll work but again, I'll give it a shot and report back.
EDIT 4:
Tried to do the course setup and I couldn't get it to work. I've got to head out now so I don't have time to try the preferred song group. Not sure if these things are even accessed during the demonstration loop as I noticed it doesn't have at the beginning:
Also I noticed that it says in the "difficulties to show" section:
So I'm not sure if anything else in that file works with the demonstration screen. So maybe have a look through ScreenDemonstration.cpp:
https://github.com/stepmania/stepmania/blob/30d723d03cc3e2d9d76706bdb259db7da4bc582e/src/ScreenDemonstration.cpp
Sorry that I can't be any more help at this stage. I think it would be possible but you may need to script it in.

Make a course with the same name as the current theme, with the songs you want to rotate in the attract demo. It's defined in the function ScreenJukebox:
etSong().
etSong().

Thanks it works like a charm, but this gets me into another situation, this new course could be useless in some situations, there is a way to make this course unselectable or non listed in the course selection?
