    If you dont mount the KEYSCEN4 the way shown in the graphic it is very very hard to work out which key is which.
    This Cbus devices as no pull downs near the keys to help either.
    Could we please get the key numbers written either on the graphic or on the grey sides.

    This would help greatly particulary when physical switch rotated 180 degrees.

    Yes I see your point! Certainly lots of room to put the numbers in :) Logged for a future release (Defect # 4253)

    Another tweek request?

    Duncan,

    What would be really fantastic, would be the facility to tell the database which way the switch was mounted and have the graphic display in that orientation. It would make programming just that little bit easier.

    Andy.

    We considered this.. but then we figured there was going to be an expectation that the Combo Boxes for Group and Key Functions would follow the orientation of the switch around the screen.. Some people even mount certain older plates upside down so that the LED's are in the opposite corner. So there's 4 possible orientations, a nightmare for maintaining the visual controls in the correct place.. the bang-for-buck was deemed not to be there.. maybe later...
