Re: Show me your Custom VCP's!
You have a good point. I noticed there are buttons (plus, minus, 25%, 50%, 100%) specifically for rapid rates, which begs the question, why does the default layout include the override button, but no buttons to actually effect the rapid rate?

Re: Show me your Custom VCP's!
Here is a mostly complete preview of the VCP screen I'm working on.

Re: Show me your Custom VCP's!
The top image in my post immediately above was made using Inkscape. I even tried hand coding an SVG, and it had the same effect of not being color accurate. <svg width="64" height="64" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <defs> <linearGradient id...

Re: Show me your Custom VCP's!
It took some time, but I was able to offset my gradient colors to look correct in VCP! This image is using my original colors of #26C180 and #009873 for the SINGLE BLOCK button https://i.imgur.com/ZhA6fhx.png I was able to achieve the intended visual look by switching to #058837 and #00502c to get t...

Re: Show me your Custom VCP's!
The presence or absence of the LED doesn't seem to affect the color appearance. After trying Illustrator, Inkscape, as well as a hand coded SVG in notepad, it seems to be VCPs handling of gradient fills that is misrepresenting the colors. I've seen a few examples with gradients in this thread, i'm c...

Re: Show me your Custom VCP's!
The "cycle cancel" and "tool check" are stock buttons, I only replaced the "single block" button to test. The strange things is, both the stock buttons look the same in VCP, and a browser, but my custom one does not. https://i.imgur.com/IIxEgbp.png edit: I did some test...

Re: Show me your Custom VCP's!
You got me thinking, so I tested out a button to make sure. While it looks correct, the color is way off, so that's something I'll need to figure out.
It looks color correct in Illustrator and in a browser (Edge), so CNC12 is doing something with the color profile.

Re: Show me your Custom VCP's!
I should clarify. As you pointed out, that is the symbol for "power", but it was not the intended focus. I merely used that symbol to give a visual impression of how labeling on the buttons would appear. My intent was to gather feedback on the button shapes themselves, as I like them all, ...

Re: Show me your Custom VCP's!
The symbol isn't really intended to be anything in particular, I just put something on them, as when empty they look...off (like a keyboard with no letters). I am using Illustrator. Any specific style stand out to you? From left to right: 1. Flat keyboard key 2. Candy style 3. Apple style Keyboard 4...
