Joshua Pressnell Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Dash buttons are on sale today for $0.99 for Prime day. Combined with my soon-to-be-released Dash Button Bridge, these things are effectively $0.99 stickup buttons that can be programmed to do anything you want in Control4. https://www.amazon.com/b?node=16857161011&ref=ods_gw_d_gw3_ot_pd?lo=digital-text&pf_rd_p=d5043bdf-d94d-4f89-a913-098b91140653&pf_rd_r=YZN8EHRHJV416HVX0P2F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitaltrader Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I can't wait for the driver. Any idea if there is a way to print my own custom stickers to lay on top of the current dash button? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea if there is a way to print my own custom stickers to lay on top of the current dash button? There's plenty of templates out there. Most people just design their own using one of the templates and then print it on a glossy label paper using an inkjet printer. But if you want to go all-out, you could make your own template that has a whole ton of buttons on an 8.5x11 page and have a professional print shop print it out on glossy labels, which would look more like the quality that comes on the buttons themselves.

This one is a PDF, so it'd take some pretty hefty editing to make your own from it. I may make my own template at some point for folks to use.

Joshua Pressnell Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 Here's a button template in Photoshop, with a layer mask. If you're familiar with Photoshop, you can just apply whatever you want in a top layer to setup your button, then merge the top layers down into the mask. Choose "preserve" when asked, and it'll auto-mask the button template against whatever layers were above it. There may be a simpler way to do this, but this works for me. button.psd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
