Positions

What a position represents in Buttons, how surfaces fit into it, and how the editor stays separate from the live workspace.

Create a workspace for one operator, describe and size it, assign surfaces, and apply the configuration.

Place elements on a position canvas and choose between buttons, sections, shift, folder, popover, router, shared and role sections.

Create a button on a position canvas, give it an action, test it in the editor, and add feedback that reflects real device state.

Find the ready-made buttons, sections and popovers a connection module supplies and drag them onto a position canvas.

Run several steps per press, react to hold and click patterns, group, condition or repeat actions, generate repeater buttons, and use encoders.

How encoders work in Buttons, how a turn reaches a button, and real-world examples for audio levels, pan, camera iris and source selection.

Stack several feedbacks on one button, show a device image or a live value, test a variable with an Expression feedback, and generate a feedback per dropdown choice.

Group related controls in a section, enable scrolling for overflow, and protect the section with roles, a PIN or an NFC card.

Give a group of controls a second layer in the same area using a Shift Section with Main and Shift pages.

Arrange controls as navigable folder pages within one area of a position, with generated or custom navigation.

Keep occasional controls behind one trigger button that unfolds a temporary panel, and control it from other buttons.

Maintain one set of controls centrally and place it in several positions so every instance updates when the master changes.

Use a Role Section to show different content to different roles on the same position, and preview what each role sees. Pro and Enterprise only.

Compare a generated Router Section, a hand-built Custom Router, buttons with internal routing actions, and plain module actions, and pick the one that fits the panel you need.

Generate a complete routing panel from chosen sources and destinations, with filters, take behavior and lock controls.

What a Custom Router's shared context tracks, how Auto Take Mode and Control Mode shape its behavior, and how nesting works.

Build a hand-placed ATEM routing panel with source, destination, Take and Clear Selection controls inside a Custom Router.
